"Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency is the first fully realised Ghost-Horror-Detective-Whodunit-Time-Travel-Romantic-Musical-Comedy Epic.

Dirk Gently himself is a detective - well, a sort of detective. There is a long and honourable tradition of great detectives and Dirk Gently does not belong to it. Sherlock Holmes once observed that once you have eliminated the impossible then whatever remains however improbable, must be the truth.

Dirk Gently, however, does not like to eliminate the impossible. He is far more interested in quantum mechanics, conjuring tricks and pizza than in fiddling around with fingerprint powder, and so his investigations tend to produce startling results.

A simple search for a missing cat reveals two ghosts, a dodo, an Electric Monk, the devastating secret that lies behind the whole of human history and threatens to bring it to a premature close, and, finally the utterly terrifying reason why Richard MacDuff has had a sofa stuck on his stairs for three weeks."
