Book Description I'm going to tell you a story you've never heard before, because no one knows this story the way I know it. It takes place on the night of November 9, 1999, and it concerns the murder of a Chilean-American prostitute and a young busboy/pimp. I want you to forget everything you think you know about that night because I know the facts better than anyone. I know the players. I've seen the evidence. And, of course, I've read all the stories: That I did it. When Girth McDürchstein was accused, convicted, and eventually incarcerated for two murders (and one count of rape that was dropped when forensic evidence revealed the victim had already expired), he made a plea heard 'round the world: "I didn't do it!" In 2001, new evidence proved him right and led to his exoneration and release. The experience inspired Abysmal Crucifix's double-album masterpiece, Girth McDürchstein's 'The Hedge', but now McDürchstein has decided to tell another story — the story of a rock star driven to the brink of insanity, forced to commit murder and all manner of unseemly crimes of passion. McDürchstein tells it the way only a songwriter can: as a full-length novel. What would have happened if Girth McDürchstein really had murdered those people in cold blood, for petty and selfish — but morally justifiable — reasons? How would he have carried it out? The story McDürchstein tells is almost too terrifying to consider! Almost. Loaded with authentic details from McDürchstein's true experiences, plus evidence uncovered in his brief court case, Girth McDürchstein crafts a true-crime thriller of unparalleled intensity and candor.
