The age-old story of boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy tries to get girl back, but the boy is a bi-polar alcoholic, the girl is a heroin addict, and the plan to get her back involves kidnapping and ketamine-and an obsessive neighbor hell-bent on getting into the house. As the withdrawal mounts, Mat forgets his meds, forcing Julia to fight to survive against bad trips, Mat's downward spiral and a mysterious watchman who haunts the gloom, while Mat unwittingly risks her life to win her back. A new vision of dramatic horror from Michael Dunn, the author of BEAUTIFUL, filled with suspense, terror and-unexpectedly-romance and featuring passages of experimental typography, DETOX is a unique experience in storytelling.

Once there was a disgruntled husband who tried to hire a hit-man to kill his ex-wife, only to find out that there are no hit-men, only undercover cops. What else can you do while you are in prison for the attempt? Well, of course, hire a second one! He was certain that he would not hire a cop again. He was right. This time it turned out to be an FBI agent. Then there was the jealous girlfriend, who drove drunk to her boyfriend's house to catch him with another woman. She saw a car sitting right in front of his house and decided that the only thing she could do in that situation was to ram the car. So, she rammed, backed up and rammed and rammed and rammed. Turns out her boyfriend was alone. It was the neighbor's car.
