A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Alice in Wonderland meets Wall Street in Jerry Jay Carroll's brilliant and witty novel. A high-powered corporate raider gets a real lesson in looking out for No. 1 when he wakes from a nap to find he has been transformed into a huge dog. Gone are the wheeling-and-dealing, the ultra-luxury lifestyle, and the high-maintenance wife. In their place are fairy-tale forests, magical creatures, and hideous monsters straight out of a nightmare. It's a world where you are either good or evil. William G. Ingersol decides market research and due diligence are needed before he decides which side to pick. Just because he has four paws and fleas now doesn't mean he's an idiot. And moral decisions were never a great strength for him in the first place. "A captivating romp." -- Entertainment Weekly.
