The Counterattack
The war for the soul of the Arlington, VA food delivery industry turns hot
A ragtag band of underground delivery drivers must overcome the combined forces of Öber Eats, FloorDash, and their local real estate kingpin backer.
…assuming the lizardmen of the Deepest State don’t defeat them first.
“Do me a favor. Next time you kidnap me, don’t do it with your bondage kit.”
Vincent Moreno, Second in Command of Arlington Öber Eats Union Chapter
and arch-nemesis of Dick Winchester
The Counterattack
Dick Winchester Book 2
The 1940s private eye versus the winds of technological progress.
The Counterattack picks up where Book 1 leaves off, with the entirety of Arlington, Virginia bracing for the coming storm. Everyone knows it’s only a matter of time before long-simmering tensions between underdog Winchester Delivery Services and food delivery goliaths Öber Eats and FloorDash finally erupt into gang warfare.
However, Dick soon learns that there is far more at play than a business rivalry as newfound allies at the Pentagon point him to the one who has uncovered the truth: K-Incog, chief QAnon competitor and head bannerman in the fight against the Deepest State.
Dick, K, and an old friend/parakeet join forces to root out the shadowy monarch at the heart of this conspiracy before his army of lizardmen can tip the scales in the favor of Dick’s app-based enemies.
And where should the King of America oversee his Deepest State empire than beneath a non-descript pizzeria?
Will Dick and his allies defeat the lizard horde? Or will Dick’s pizza order be delivered…
…to his funeral?
Praise for Dick Winchester Book 1:
B.G. Craig (Goodreads)
The Opening Salvo is a satirical noir set in the modern day, and it’s also the funniest thing I’ve read all year. It’s so well executed that you can’t help but question the motives of your local DoorDash driver.
Jonathan (Amazon)
As you read you’ll be immediately plunged into the dangerous streets of Arlington as food delivery companies vie for control with Dick Winchester as the newcomer on the scene. I would highly recommend for anyone to read or listen to this book!
Mackenzie (Vocal)
Satire that I’m gonna remember for months after reading it, the self-aware comedy that I just can’t not laugh at, and damn, it’s so unique.
Join the front lines of the war for the Arlington, VA food delivery business
Dick Winchester and the employees of Winchester Delivery Services are tenacious, but they face steep odds. Corporate sabotage, bribed authorities, digital surveillance, lizardmen, and a shadowy cabal backing it all.
How can you help? Buy the book. Spread the word. Write a review. All ways to help fund Dick’s next heavy machine gun purchase.
The only question that remains is… will you join the fight?
