Smut Busters

Former husband-and-wife hedge-fund managers work an Internet scam, inviting patrons to spend a weekend improving their sex techniques-unaware that spy cams track their every bounce and moan. While the patrons set themselves up for blackmail, Raven, the sex facilitator, falls in love with the co-owner’s husband. They plot to poison his wife even as the wife decides to kill them. Meanwhile, Flasher Cobb and his girlfriend, camped in a refuge near Kat’s Harbor for the Homeless, supply the sex hacienda with cocaine. A group of the homeless, led by a composer, a retired 'New York Times' reporter, and an Iraq-War veteran who calls himself Stormy Weathers, bust the scam wide open. In the doing, the composer and his long-estranged daughter reunite. Includes Readers Guide.

Sunstone Press has published 'Whirling Backward into the World,' his second book of poems, as well as his Santa Fe trilogy which consists of 'Acting Badly,' 'Making Crazy,' and 'Smut Busters.'

Reading ’Smut Busters’ is the most fun I’ve had since puberty.' 3
