Bad Monkey

Bad Monkey is a wacky romp of a satirical detective story. Andrew Yancy is a disgraced former detective currently working as the city food inspector. This alone brings him into many vile situations. Not quite as vile though as discovering a severed arm on the beach. He does and promptly tosses it into his freezer to preserve evidence.

He immediately sees an opportunity to solve a big crime and regain his badge and detective status. But first, he has to navigate the course of many off-beat characters, including an off-kilter ex-lover, who is a fugitive from Kansas, the widow of the frozen arm, a Bahamian Voodoo queen, his new love the kinky coroner, and even a bad monkey, whose role is pivotal to the plot somehow.
