Holy Rollers by Rob Byrnes

Grant and Chase are back, with the gang, but this time the target isn't a closeted-hetero movie star. They're after a much bigger jackpot: the Virginia Cathedral of Love, an ultra-conservatve rightwing church that supposedly has a secret stash of $700 million dollars. For that kind of money, it's worth leaving New York City for a while, and the “Gang that Can't Do Anything Straight” sets up an undercover operation in Nash Bog, Virginia, there to infiltrate the church and find out how to get to the prize.

Rob Byrnes reunites some of our favorite characters from Straight Lies (with a couple cameo appearances from The Night We Met) in this tale of corruption, greed, salvation, and crime. Back is the alcoholic former cab driver Farraday. Back is prettyboy partyboy Jared. Back are Lisa and Mary Beth. New to the mix is the delightful Constance Price, who adds a new level of lovable deception to this cacophony of crme and chaos. In pursuit of this latest jackpot, Grant, Chase, and their cohorts must tackle not only the Church's directors (no strangers to lies and larceny themselves), but the assorted neighbors that come with trading the safety of the city for the familiarity of the suburbs. From New York to Virginia and onto Washington DC (where the Virginia Cathedral of Love's Project Rectitude is trying to make good god-fearing Christian men out of assorted homosexuals), Holy Rollers takes you on a rolling ride of laughs, suspense, and sexcapades.

Looking forward to the next instalment in the series, coming later this year!
