The Pineapples of Wrath
Set in the heart of Trois-Rivières’ world-famous (and perfectly fictitious) Hawaiian district, The Pineapples of Wrath follows amateur detective Marie-Plum as she investigates the suspicious death of her next-door neighbour. While the local police believe the former limbo champion was the victim of a fatal piña colada overdose, Marie-Plum is convinced there’s more to the case than meets the eye. A funny, loving tribute to tiki kitsch and old Agatha Christie novels.
“What film noir, detective novels, and comic books have in common is that they have long been considered low-brow trash. The Pineapples of Wrath is both a fun whodunit comic book and an interrogation of the genre.”
–Crystal Chan, Montreal Review of Books
“As with any good Agatha Christie whodunnit, the bodies pile up, which sends Marie-Plum into the depths of the seedy Tiki underworld, including the cutthroat world of professional limbo competition.”
–John Seven, The Comics Beat
