Wylie ' Coyote' Melville
- burnt-out professional therapist & hobbyist forensic consultant
- needs a break South Florida might be home but it's also home to bad memories & local gangsters bearing grudges So Wylie & his ace poker-playing best friend Bay Lettique head to the tawdry glitz of Las Vegas to lie low for a while But when Wylie & Bay see a woman fall from the balcony of her hotel on the Strip their low-profile Vegas vacation soon turns into a murder investigation With the powers-that-be keen to cover up all trace of the woman's death Wylie starts to follow a trail that leads him across the vast & lawless deserts of redneck Nevada & deep into the heart of a human trafficking conspiracy A crime caper filled with Dufresne's trademark black humour I Don't Like Where This is Going continues the story of Wylie's haphazard investigations into America's bankrupt political system where power & influence are on sale & the corrupt prey on the innocent
