Beat Bop


When Varian Pike is offered a sketchy job for too much money, the results are predictable and catastrophic. As a result of his bad decision, his new friend faces down the worst danger he's ever known, and Pike's old enemies join in the hunt, always keeping just one step behind them both.
Beat Bop is a wild and bumpy ride from Wall Street to Pacific Street for Pike and his unlikely partner, a doo-wop singing, Walt Whitman-quoting member of the notorious Vagabond Jesters; Pike has to outrun gangsters, dirty cops, and a gang of teenage Cobras. The result: The Greenwich Massacre and dead bodies scattered all over a posh New England town. Pike will never be able to shake the consequences.
