Synopsis

If your life was a song, what would it sound like? In the case of Gerald Barkley, it would be an elevator jingle. Barkley's never been the most memorable guy. Even as a longtime Los Angeles homicide detective, people tend to forget him. And when his death draws near in the form of a rare blood disease, he has to wonder...will anyone notice when he's gone? Add to that Barkley's latest case: The mysterious death of Julian Strange, a rock-and-roll icon with an obsession for cats. Renowned as a wild performer and a dabbler in the odd, Strange procured a copy of the world's oldest song. What does it have to do with his death? And what will Gerald Barkley learn from it all? The debut novel from speculative fiction author Kyle A. Massa, "Gerald Barkley Rocks" examines music, fame, mortality, and the strangeness that composes them all. One part detective story, one part rock-and-roll elegy, and one part supernatural comedy, this book might just change your outlook on life—and death.
