Book Description
Since she bought her rambling old fixer-upper of a house, Jacobia Tiptree has gotten used to finding things broken. But her latest problem isn't so easily repaired. Along with the rotting floor joists and sagging support beams, there's the little matter of the dead man in Jake's storeroom, an ice pick firmly planted in his cranium. Not much happens in her tiny Maine town, but that's about to change. Jake's unknown guest turns out to be a world-famous corporate raider, local boy turned billionaire Threnody McIlwaine. When Jake's best friend, quiet and dependable Ellie White, readily confesses to the murder, cops and journalists swarm into snowbound Eastport. Jake smells a cover-up, and begins poking into past history between McIlwaine and Ellie's family. But someone doesn't like nosy neighbors...and Jake's rustic refuge may become her final resting place.

Book Description
John Carey possesses a wicked, intelligent sense of humour and a deft feel for the play of language. His poetry is a finely calibrated device for detecting and skewering absurtidy, cant, hypocrisy, humbug, mendacity, and institutional cruelty. Underlying the fun is the humanist's lament that we should and could be better than this. Though overshadowed by his satires, this New and Selected also contains lyrical and personal poems which are acutely affecting. - Brook Emery John Carey writes a richly communal poetry, full of glimpses of the absurdity of our social lives. These poems are both playful and wise, moving from a surprising hilarity to a compassionate seriousness that re-envisions our world, until we see it with fresh eyes. Dead Cat Bounce includes all of Carey's most memorable work - poems to be savoured, shared and treasured. - Andy Kissane John Carey is a Sydney poet, ex-teacher of French and Latin and a former part-time actor. The latest of his five collections is Duck Soup & Swansongs (Ginninderra Press 2018)
