Semi-retired god of rock guitar and local poseur, Erik Make Loud, has got himself a new girlfriend. Helene Hilditch—formerly known as Howlin’ Hellbitch—of all-girl punk outfit the Blue Tits is a mean guitarist. But not as mean as whoever is trying to kill her...

With a rare pressing of the Blue Tits’ first album to find, the Vinyl Detective and Nevada are called in to help. But this time the question is who isn’t a suspect. With a long list of enemies, the people who could want Helene dead includes her ex-bandmates, their former producer turned record label mogul, the TV presenter that Helene got fired—even their old roadie could be in on it. As the killer’s attempts on Helene’s life get more and more ambitious the Vinyl Detective and Nevada are in a race against time to find the killer, before it’s too late.
