The Lobster Heist - Paperback

by Erin McLaughlin (Author)

Sometimes, you've just got to get the lobster.

Apart from his thankless job at Hot Dawgy Dawgs, Brooklyn's best and worst hot dog joint, twenty-something Josh Cantillo doesn't have much going on in his life. Unless you count his never-ending quest to find his lobsterman father who walked out one day and never came back. One of the only things that Josh remembered about him was their shared enchantment with a rare, metallic-blue lobster that resides in a local, rundown Chinese restaurant-and when Josh finds out that his father is dying, he will go to any means to get that blue lobster and bring it to him.

It's a foolproof plan, if not for Pony's ruthless gun-toting handlers, a mad-dash to Maine, and the crusty lobster fishermen who won't reveal his father's whereabouts. Josh and his friends' dedication to making it out alive, and his father's ticking-timeline, might just help them accomplish their mission. At any rate, the comical misadventures of The Lobster Heist will at least get Josh out of serving sauerkraut for a few days.
