“They say that some people are born under a bad sign, and in Merton Druitt’s case, it was the sign of the rodent.”
A politician’s wife begins to fear for her husband’s sanity. An old woman muses on her complicated relationship with God. A bartender and a social worker talk murder. Eight strange and compelling tales provide a look into the various hidden corners of a troubled city where nobody truly knows anybody.
The Sign of the Rodent is the third book in the “Support” series, a group of interconnected stories set in the same time and place.
