Publisher's Note
An unusual assortment of passengers--Fay Benton, a cocktail waitress and single mother; Johnny and the Contusions, a no-talent ship's band; Arnold and Phil, refugees from the local senior center; and hired killer Lou Tarrant--embark on an offbeat voyage aboard the Extravaganza of the Seas, a gambling ship with another mysterious function.

Industry reviews
"The characters wear their flaws like brand logos, identifying them as the rotters they are and will continue to be. Barry isn't so much a satirist as a savvy shopper, picking brands from a set stock. This shorthand serves him well in his columns, which tame the chaos of an unruly world by reducing it to a familiar comedy of manners....But the same device flattens his fiction, which has to invent characters from the mess. Once he defines his characters by their tics, they can only repeat themselves."
New York Times Book Review - John Leland (10/06/2002)
