Publisher's Synopsis
Is Nothing Sacred? Walter von Wegen's 2nd novel describes New York in 2044-a city of extremes has become even more so. NYPD detectives Richard Hayte and Perry Donohue face a series of baffling bank robberies where the robbers vanish into thin air, unexplained suicide bombings and a mysterious severed head that Homeland Security will do anything to get back. Set against a backdrop of flooded subway tunnels, a 'bumblefly' plague and official "Noise Days" where high winds and 21st century architecture create high-decibel whistling, Is Nothing Sacred? unfolds at a dizzying pace, with many unexpected twists and turns.
