Triggerfish Twist is the fourth book in Tim Dorsey's as-yet unnamed series of books which were centered on Serge A. Storms. It was published in 2002. The book takes place in the summer of 1997, somewhere in the midst of the events of Florida Roadkill. Triggerfish Twist may be considered more of a "parallel work" than a sequel or prequel.

Plot summary

Jim Davenport is transferred to his company's branch in Tampa, Florida. Though initially excited by the move, the job quickly proves to be disappointing, Jim's neighbors are a strange bunch of eccentrics and crime is much worse than he had thought. Serge Storms, Sharon Rhodes, and "Coleman" Bunsen move in down the street. Serge seems pleasant enough, but there is definitely something odd about him. Sharon is a spiteful coke-headed hooker. Coleman is a brain-dead stoner who is constantly under the influence of something, from alcohol to illegal drugs. In true Dorsey fashion, the story becomes surreal from that point onward.

gollark: I don't see why you *would* use it if it imposes such ridiculous workarounds on you.

gollark: osmarks.net simply does not use Cloudflare.

gollark: I suppose that in retrospect it should probably maybe be rewritten to buffer the last 30 seconds or so of events, and return them on request.

gollark: The API is also entirely undocumented, which is probably why.

gollark: I only realized that it probably shouldn't do that while discussing it with AlexDevs, but nobody noticed so it's probably fine.
