I buy her a drink and wake up with staples in my side. "Don't worry," she says. "You only need one." </i> <P><P> <P>Disgraced junkie cop turned apocalyptic antihero Phineas Poe emerges from a psych ward on Christmas Eve and tumbles for beautiful predatory Jude, streetwise assassin turned organ thief. After one night together, she cuts him open, leaves him to fate. Reborn in a bath of ice, Phineas tracks Jude from the back alleys of Denver across the Texas desert for a violent showdown that leaves them on the run to Mexico and the debauched playgrounds of California's elite. Descend into a nightmare realm where every act of perversion finds willing disciples. Enter a world of brutal blood sport, murderous role play, existential snuff films. Lines between victim and accomplice blur past recognition only to be redrawn according to violent whim. The myth of Orpheus is deconstructed on a razorblade as Phineas and Jude chase each other through a hell of their own making. <P><P> <P>PHINEAS POE is equal parts noir romance, revenge fantasy, suicide pact, urban myth exploded, and nihilistic tragedy. 71077 1 10 2005 Phineas Poe: Kiss Me Judas, Penny Dreadful, Hell's Half Acre total:84|5:45|4:31|3:7|2:1|1:0| 84 372 133 12 4 1 false false Wed Apr 02 17:30:19 -0700 2008 Wed Apr 02 17:33:51 -0700 2008 more...]]> 3 0 false false Tue Jun 13 00:00:00 -0700 2006 Fri Apr 04 12:07:51 -0700 2008 Fri Apr 04 12:08:45 -0700 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false false Thu Apr 01 00:00:00 -0800 2004 Sun Sep 20 13:35:05 -0700 2009 Sun Sep 20 13:37:56 -0700 2009 more...]]> 0 0 false false Mon Jul 20 21:32:34 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 20 21:34:10 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Tue Feb 17 18:41:48 -0800 2009 Tue Feb 17 18:42:26 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Thu Apr 24 11:30:15 -0700 2008 Thu Apr 24 11:34:22 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 0 false false Sun Apr 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Thu Jul 26 18:03:17 -0700 2007 Thu Jul 26 18:09:02 -0700 2007 5 0 false false Tue Apr 08 12:48:27 -0700 2008 Tue Apr 08 12:52:32 -0700 2008 3 0 false false Sun Mar 02 10:42:47 -0800 2008 Sun Mar 02 10:44:07 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Sun Jul 06 13:47:53 -0700 2008 Sun Jul 06 13:49:41 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Fri Sep 04 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 01 09:49:12 -0700 2009 Tue Nov 10 23:18:01 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Thu Jun 12 05:06:36 -0700 2008 Thu Jun 12 05:06:56 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Thu Nov 26 09:34:40 -0800 2009 Thu Nov 26 09:34:40 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Thu Nov 26 09:05:10 -0800 2009 Thu Nov 26 09:05:10 -0800 2009 2 0 false false Wed Nov 25 10:26:34 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 25 10:26:34 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sun Nov 22 07:54:51 -0800 2009 Sun Nov 22 07:54:51 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Tue Nov 17 12:06:15 -0800 2009 Tue Nov 17 12:06:15 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Tue Nov 10 13:06:53 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 11 06:18:24 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sat Oct 17 08:14:35 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 17 08:14:35 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Oct 14 11:34:56 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 14 11:34:56 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=73441
