The Wrong Idiot

In the early days of the pandemic, San Francisco realtor and part-time bookie, Eddie Bilker, has two problems: his wife has been kidnapped, and there’s a dead body in his Porsche. In this twisty tale, Eddie if forced to navigate two separate worlds. He goes toe-to-toe with the wildly eccentric criminals, who may or may not be involved in the kidnapping, while simultaneously trying to hold onto his straight life as an upstanding member of society. As the conspiracy unfolds, you’ll meet characters who are all a bit compromised but each tethered to a dramatic kidnapping that is not what it seems. -Annie Gaus, SF Standard
