Publisher's summary

After the infamous Gone Gorilla and the Monster Pit cases, the Old Fart Squad suspects their special skills to tackle those cases no self-respecting Chicago Police detective would touch with a ten-foot pole. They tackle the reality of Urban Legends that happen to be more than legend but fact! A stuffed gorilla comes to life, Lovecraftian creatures crawl out of a monster hole, and now everything is calm in the city, so who needs the Senior Squad of retired detectives? That is until trail bikers and kayakers are suddenly disappearing along a stretch of the Chicago River, disappearing into the river with a bizarre creature ripping them apart and feeding them to its babies. Where'd the monster come from? What was its origin story, and how could it be conquered? Animal Control couldn't manage it, the Fire Department guys wanted nothing to do with it, and anyone who had any real knowledge of the freak in the river was long dead, as the detectives determine it is a freak half woman, half snake being escaped from the old Riverview Park Fairway freak show, when the huge, wonderful park at the center of the city had suddenly, many years before, shut down, never to reopen ever again.

Neither dogs nor divers could lure the creature out into the light for capture or killing, until the Old Fart Squad comes up with a crazy plan involving a sacrificial goat. The detectives believe that the sacrifice would serve two great ends. It would end the monster in the Chicago River, and it might well end the curse of the Goat on the Chicago Cubs. They also enlist the "paranormal" help of Lady Suedini, not Houdini, but Suedini. The question becomes will it work? Can they put an end to the ravenous snake being in the river, and to capture or kill her offspring?

Robert W. Walker is the author of 80 novels, four of which are this novella series of chicaghost urban legend tales of the Old Fart Squad. Walker is the author of the Geoffrey Caine horror novels, and has authored the Edge and the Instinct Series, a 15 book series featuring Dr. Jessica Coran, ME, FBI, star of Killer Instinct.
