    "description": "\"Who'd want to kill a dumb cartoon bunny?\"\n\nThat's what Eddie Valiant wants to know. He's the toughest private eye in Los Angeles, and he'll handle anything \u2013 if you're human. If you're a Toon, that's another story.\n\nEddie doesn't like Toons \u2013 those cartoon characters who live side-by-side with humans. Not the way they look, and especially not the way they talk: word-filled balloons come out of their mouths and then disintegrate, leaving dust all over his rug.\n\nEddie will work for a Toon if his cash supply is low enough. So he reluctantly agrees when Roger Rabbit, a Toon who plays straight man (or should that be straight rabbit) in the Baby Herman cartoon series, asks him to find out who's been trying \u2013 unsuccessfully \u2013 to buy his contract from the DeGreasy Brothers syndicate.\n\nThen Rocco DeGreasy is murdered \u2013 and Roger is the prime suspect! The rabbit is also, as Eddie soon discovers, very, very dead.\n\nWho censored Roger Rabbit? And who shot Rocco DeGreasy? Was it Roger, or was it Rocco's hot-cha-cha girlfriend, Jessica Rabbit? Why had Jessica \u2013 a pretty steamy number for a Toon \u2013 ever married a dopey bunny in the first place? And why does everybody want Roger's battered old teakettle?\n\nAs Eddie combs L.A. from the executive suites of the DeGreasy Brothers to Sid Sleaze's porno comic studio, he uncovers art thefts, blackmail plots\u2026.and the cagiest killer he's ever faced.\n\nIn Who Censored Roger Rabbit?, author Gary K. Wolf has created a wonderfully skewed \u2013 and totally believable \u2013 world compounded of equal parts Raymond Chandler, Lewis Carroll, and Warner Brothers. This riotously surreal spoof of the hard-boiled detective novel is packed with action and laughs. From first page to last, Who Censored Roger Rabbit? is shear delight.\n\nCelebrated author Gary K. Wolf's cult classic and highly praised novel Who Censored Roger Rabbit? is the basis for the blockbuster Walt Disney/Steven Spielberg Academy Award winning film Who Framed Roger Rabbit.\n\nThe detective on the cover is portrayed by Mr. Wolf ",
