Summary
The members of his band, The Derailleurs, are passionately devoted to their guiding spirit, as are all who fall under Checker's spell. But when another drummer, Eaton Striker, hears the prodigy play, he is pulled inexorably into Checker's orbit by a powerful combination of envy and admiration. Soon The Derailleurs, too, are torn apart by latent jealousies that Eaton does his utmost to bring alive.

Critic Reviews
"More compelling even than the plot turns are Shriver's insights into human nature.... Checker and The Derailleurs, like its beguiling protagonist, is hard to forget." ( People)
