“I got hooked by this debut from the first couple of pages with its humorous and fast-paced style. What makes this book stand out is its strong narrative, which kept surprising me from start to finish. Even when it seems to go down a well-trodden path, it turns to find a different way. Its eroticism sways from sensual tension to crude explicitness, and back. The characters are intriguing and the writing is great. Definitely a recommendation and an author to keep an eye on.”

Like being jolted by a defibrillator!
This short story read like a full length novel. It begins innocently enough, then reaches up from it’s pages to grab you by the throat. I cannot remember having such a visceral reaction to such a handful of words!
Mr. Zilfiger carefully crafts each character with utmost slyness and morphs them into new people with a new story by the end of this sordid tale. During this transformation, you may find your heart racing, your breath quickening and your own mind going down a dark path. Deliciously wicked.
