The Book of Catches

WHAT WOULD YOU DO TO BEAT CANCER?

If it’s 1992 and you’re Percy Foster, a baby-boomer flower child gone to seed in an Indiana mental facility, the answer is whatever it takes. With the help of his niece Nora and nephew Sonny, Percy bluffs his way to freedom and onto the trail of the Stuve, a psychotropic laden frog from his family’s past that blew minds in the 1970s and may just save his life.

Equal parts road novel, conspiracy thriller, page-turner, comedic romp, and alternative history lesson, The Book of Catches uses a pastiche of voices and ideas to explore the convenient narratives we all create in order to survive.
