This is a fish out of water story about a down on his luck SW engr who wants to be a novelist. His family is equally hapless and when misfortune begins to fall on them, they turn to 'Porky' and Fred to bail them out.The hook for this book is everyone can see some of theirselves in this story. We all assist family members from time to time, because that's what families do.The lead character takes this to a sublime level, all the while enduring abuse from the family he is helping and suspicion from the law that he may be helping them to cover up a crime.Good story with characters that you can care about, if not necessarily believe.
