That is, until they begin to hear the whispers.Before long they bump into post-technological humans in thrall to arboreal Sirens. Staying means freedom from his checkered past.

Dane was a reliable guitarist until he got addicted to ants. Now he's just a giant anteater with an abysmal grade point average. On a date with lead singer, Serena, they witness a gruesome incident. Waking up in the hospital, Dane realizes Serena's missing. Going to the police only gets him a felony for possession of ants. Now, forced to lick the habit while he tracks down Serena, he's going to need a little help from the band.Investigating familiar watering holes (while stopping for one or two drinks) leads him to an underground criminal organization. Is it a coincidence that a feline fatale attempts to recruit him for the mob? Should he expose the dirty underbelly of their society, putting Serena and his band on the line, or try to take them down from the inside? Either way, it's going to take more than the Komodo dragon on clarinet.
