Moist and Delicious

Mark Haskell Smith is a master of comic fiction, renowned for his offbeat characters, vivid settings, and serpentine plots full of sex and crime. This limited edition eBook collects Smith’s first two novels, Moist and Delicious .

In Moist , we meet Bob, a mild-mannered lab tech who wants nothing more out of life than to play Tetris and surf the Web. That is, until a severed arm lands on his desk, and he falls for the woman depicted in one of the arm’s erotic tattoos. He has to find her. And when the Los Angeles Mexican mafia and the cops come for the arm—key evidence that may bring down the whole crew—he just might have a chance.

Delicious opens in sunny Hawaii, where the palm trees sway and a gangland-style turf war is erupting. When a TV producer flies to the islands to film a pilot, one of the best chefs in Honolulu joins a fight-to-the-finish over who will cater the shoot. Fast-paced and ribald, this uproarious and delectably dark comic thriller is a side of paradise that definitely hasn’t been endorsed by the tourist bureau.
