Slouching Past Bethlehem Carol Adler

Gissalayne Chondroitin, PhD times 5 five in jobless academic disciplines, Associate Director of Hook, Line & Sinker, LLC, an employment agency in Rochester, New York, "We give you the rod, you hook the fish," has one agenda: find a man, fast. But not any man; the sugarcone.com internet match websites has already led her down the disaster trail too many times. Magically-or maybe not--on New Years Day of YK24 (2004) Jonas Foreplay sits down in the empty plastic seat next to her at the SeaTac airport on her way home from her most recent sugarcone.com failure. In this fast-reading novel, Adler neatly hides the truth of what's really happening right in your own back yard.
