Book summaryIt's Christmas Eve, 1979, in Wichita, Kansas, and sleazy lawyer Charlie Arglist is about to skip town. Charlie's been embezzling funds from the mobster whose porn empire he helps to oversee, and now the time has come to make himself scarce. But, in the holiday spirit, he decides to make the rounds of the Wichita underworld to say his goodbyes. This decision sets in motion a chain of violent, yet hilarious, events. Hollywood adapted THE ICE HARVEST into a 2005 film starring John Cusack as Charlie Media reviews"This tale of a halfhearted embezzler struggling to escape from town...with his ill-gotten gains is not your average Christmas Eve story....Phillips provides the perfect corrective to all those treacly seasonal fables...." |
