Armed Response by Ann Rower
Ann goes to L.A. for the funeral of Uncle Leo, the man who wrote ?Thanks for the Memory.? While everyone is obsessing over whether Bob Hope will pay his condolences, Ann wonders why she can?t stop tripping Aunt Cherrie?s alarm system - the one which guarantees an Armed Response. Will the guards really arrive with guns? Will she get the keys to Cherrie?s Jaguar to take it for a spin? Will she get to keep cousin Candee?s suicide note? Did Candee do it because she didn?t get the Taco Bell commercial? This touching and funny novel looks at L.A. through the eyes of a perpetually amused downtown New Yorker.
?Ann Rower?s bitterly funny novel about death, personal space, and home security systems in LA? SanFrancisco Bay Guardian ?Given its subject matter, Armed Response is surprisingly funny, a book that looks death in the eye and refuses to yield? Los Angeles Reader
