Publisher's Synopsis
"Tom Cahill thinks the two voices on the harassing phone calls he's been receiving are actually one person. But they are indeed different predators: Eddie Branagan, telling him what he's going to do to his daughter Laura; Phil LaPorta, painting a picture of how great a man Tom, a newspaper columnist, really is. Because the novel cuts back and forth between otherwise total strangers there is a temp that cannot be easily identified with any one genre of storytelling. Suspense is rendered all the more palpable. Beetlebomb is a pan through a mundane time and place, written in opposition to the generally unspoken sources of society's brutality"--.
