The unlikely pair navigate the enclaves of desert-dwelling vagabonds and find that Arabella is in serious trouble?caught in the middle of a violent standoff that only Heist, mysteriously, can end. Phoebe's trip to the desert was always going to be strange, but it was never supposed to be dangerous. ...[Jonathan Lethem's first detective novel since Motherless Brooklyn, The Feral Detective is a singular achievement by one of our greatest writers.]
