    About this ebook

    Marriage is a game of compromises, but can compromise ultimately lead to murder? When Amy goes missing on her and Nick’s fifth wedding anniversary, Nick is at first convinced that what looks like blood smells like either ketchup or marinara sauce, and is oblivious to the fact that something awful has actually happened.

    Maybe it’s the fact that when Amy is around, Nick isn’t allowed to eat anything, even if he is ravenously hungry. Maybe it’s the fact that Nick has to watch his wife eat anything and everything she wants, without gaining a single pound. Or maybe Nick is just off his rocker.

    Whatever the case might be, Nick has to figure out how to overcome the very odd situation of being caught with a slice of pizza in his hands when police and media are swarming his house, completely unnoticed by him, to find out what happened to his wife.

    In a hilarious parody of Gillian Flynn’s #1 New York Times Bestseller Gone Girl, this novel will have you wondering if maybe Nick really did off his wife. Goo Girl will have you wondering who could have lived with Amy for five years without going berserk. It will leave you asking, “Was that blood, or just marinara sauce?”

       Nick Drone—the Day Of

      Whenever I think of my wife, I think about the shape of her head. It’s…weird. Actually, it was the very first thing that I noticed when we first met. She had a heart-shaped forehead, one that you would consider perfect, but her head, oh god, is that even a head? It seemed square and unusual, probably because of eating too much Pizza and Tacos.

      I would recognize that head anywhere.

      And don’t even get me started on what’s inside her head. The way she would always think of eating; the way she’d want to get her hands on the latest variety of Pizza out there and how she had all these discount cards to various restaurants; the way she wouldn’t let me eat anything, even if I am already too hungry. She’s vicious like that—but she has the perfect figure and the perfect type of metabolism--one that would not let her gain weight the way that others do. 

      Today is our fifth year anniversary, but instead of celebrating, Amy’s gone.

      Where are you Amy? What have you done?

      When I arrived home from work today, the house was in total disarray. The couch cushions were all over the floor, books were strewn all over the place, my Star Wars action figures were out of their boxes (dear God no!), and there was blood splattered all over the walls.

      Curiously though, the blood smelled like Ketchup, or was it marinara sauce? Or was I imagining things? As I walked
