Phoebe Siegler first meets Charles Heist in a shabby trailer on the eastern edge of Los Angeles. She’s looking for her friend’s missing daughter, Arabella, and hires Heist to help. A laconic loner who keeps his pet opossum in a desk drawer, Heist intrigues the sarcastic and garrulous Phoebe. Reluctantly, he agrees to help. The unlikely pair navigates the enclaves of desert-dwelling vagabonds and finds Arabella is in serious trouble - caught in the middle of a violent standoff that only Heist, mysteriously, can end.

Great story and great narration.
Revisado: 01-22-19
Lethem's main character (Phoebe) heads West, from NYC, in search of a young runaway. Under the guidance of detective Charles Heist they head past the city streets, past the makeshift shelters on the edge of town and out into the desert, where they search among the small societies and groups that exist beyond the fringe of society. Good and evil abound.
The Feral Detective must battle the king of the Bear Clan, in a torchlit fight to the death to win back the lost / escaped young girl for whom Phoebe is searching. Other entanglements follow as the story works its adventurous way through the Bear Clan, the Rabbit Clan and remote and isolated Monster truck rallies to conclude their story
I thought the narration was great, bringing life, attitude and personality to our storyteller -- Phoebe.
