About The Big Monster Monkey by Kenyon Ledford:

Look at Witherspoon, PI. Smug in his plush basement office of the Perryman Bros. Law building. He’s given his smoking hot secretary, Acrimonious Relationship, or Acri, the day off so she can file her nails and sharpen her tongue, or whatever it is she does in her spare time. Perhaps now some work can get done. Yes, the old silver-haired fox is lording it up without the haughty Acri around to belittle him. Look at him. Feet up on the desk, casting animal shadows upon the wall with his hands. Yes, Witherspoon has got it made. His dull, devoted assistant, Bayer, is out pounding the pavement looking for jobs, and his jealous rival, Jack Spyder is nowhere to be seen. Indeed, Witherspoon has got it all. However, there is one thing he hasn’t got; clients. Well, that’s about to change!Oh look. His phone is ringing. It is Bayer calling in from the field with…a job! It seems there is some mysterious scientist who needs help. Perhaps some brave and clever PI with an overbearing British accent fits that bill? Look at Witherspoon rubbing his hands together. “Just so,” he chortles. “I watch the office for just one day and the jobs come rolling in. That should take Acri down a peg.”So, what’s the job? What’s the pay? The payment is $100,000. What does Witherspoon have to do to claim this windfall? Merely travel to the jungles of Guahyandi, avoid the brutal and barbaric Kokoee tribe, then find and capture a mythical beast known only as the big monster monkey, and bring it back safe and sound. “Hmm,” Witherspoon says. “it sounds almost too easy.”The first thing Witherspoon needs is a pilot. Amazingly, one calls almost immediately to offer his assistance in the adventure. How did he find out about it? No matter, he’s cheap, and all Witherspoon and Bayer have to do is break him out of the maximum security ward of the local mental hospital. What could possibly go wrong?The Big Monster Monkey is a romping action adventure that will appeal to fans of parody, screwball, and surreal comedy. It will delight people with OIS, (Overactive Imagination Syndrome,) and it will disappoint those folks who think a rollicking good time begins with knock-knock jokes and ends with The Book of Mormon. The Big Monster Monkey will also thrill fans of the sub-genre “Detectives Speaking with Fake British Accents.” Includes: action adventure, humor adventure, detective humor, humorous books, strong female protagonist, parody
