(THIS IS A GAG BOOK) 2020: The Novel is the perfect book for anyone eager to relive 2020! Holden Heart is an eager, if unorthodox, young private detective who will face his deadliest case yet when he's hired by the stunning but treacherous heiress, Diana Coquette to investigate her father's murder. Pursued by lethal gangsters, Tony Luxor and Gaspard Bowelman, Holden will have to fight his way through a relentless year if he's going to make it out of 2020 alive . . . At least that's what this book would have been if 2020 had been a normal year. Instead you're getting: a GAG BOOK! Like so many of us during 2020, Holden's promise of a first person narrative (written as a journal) and an exciting mystery involving a heiress quickly devolves into a devastated protagonist who can't bring himself to write more than A BRIEF SENTENCE OR TWO ON EVERY OTHER PAGE as the horrifying headlines of the year begin to roll in. Instead of a thrilling, page turning adventure, Holden spends his year depressed and giving monosyllabic responses to 2020's dreary headlines while in bed doing puzzles, watching Tiger King, and finally berating the reader for eagerly picking up a book that revisits the dumpster fire that was 2020. From Andy Bray (and his dad), one of the guys who brought you the bestselling "Making Fake Star Trek" book series that Star Trek's Chekov, Walter Koenig called "Well written and very entertaining...a delightful read!"
