Neal Carey has to keep the mob, the FBI, and a major television personality from killing his newest client - but he's tempted to do the job himselfSometime student and every-reluctant detective Neal Cary would breather be finished a dull doctoral thesis than staring down the nose of a loaded gun - but his new assignment doesn't sound dangerous. All ge's got to do is pull off the ultimate makeover: turn Polly Paget - a gum-chewing, foul-mouthed, big-haired broad - into a perfect lady in time to testify in a rape case against Jack Landis, head of the Family Cable Network and America's most beloved family man. But Polly isn't cooperating and everyone - including a former FBI agent, an obsessive-compulsive hitman, the Mafia, a porn prince, and a slew of tabloid reporters - is on her trail, turning Neal's 'simple' assignment into a deadly game of duck-duck-goose. In a hellish and hilarious escapade that takes him from the deserts of Nevada to the bright lights of Las Vegas, and finally to a hair-raising climax in a shoddily built amusement park, Neal tries to escape the mob's big guns while taking a slippery walk up the world's biggest water slide.
