Daniel ""Chaingang"" Bunkowski is five hundred pounds of bone-crushing malice. He walks upright like a man, but that's about his only similarity to a human. He has the brilliant, twisted mind of a genius and the reflexes of a predatory animal with an unquenchable thirst for savagery. The story that began with SLOB continues in this horrific novel, as Bunkowski goes in search of his maker. His insatiable appetite for death leads him back to his roots in Kansas City, Missouri where he searches for a woman known to him as ""mother."" She made him into the beast he is today, now he's going to make her wish that she had never given him life. The late Rex Miller had many different jobs and several obsessions. He was a radio broadcaster, did voice-overs, and announced for nationwide radio and television programs.

Mr. Miller's obsessions also proved fruitful, and he was considered one of America's most knowledgeable authorities on popular culture memorabilia and the culture of nostalgia in general. His many novels include Stone Shadow, Slob, and several other books in the Chaingang/Jack Eichord Saga, pitting a police detective against one of the sickest killers in all of popular literature.
