What happens when classic characters outlive their copyright...and someone decides that's unacceptable?
Meet the Executor: a man tasked with "protecting culture" by eliminating anything that slips into the public domain. Armed with absolute certainty, questionable logic, and a trench coat that's seen better decisions, he hunts down the world's most famous literary characters one by one, convinced that ownership matters more than meaning.
Dracula is running out of places to hide.
Sherlock Holmes has been deduced to death.
Hercule Poirot never saw it coming.
Winnie-the-Pooh is concerned...but ready.
Public Domain? Public Enemy! is a fast, darkly comic satire in which beloved figures collide with modern intellectual property obsession culminating in a delicious finale you won't see coming. As the body count rises, so does the absurdity, exposing the strange, bureaucratic madness behind cultural ownership.
Part crime caper, part literary farce, this is a book about stories, control, and the danger of people who believe they are absolutely right.
Perfect for readers who enjoy sharp satire, absurdist humour, and watching overconfident men be very, very wrong.
