Holistic detective Dirk Gently has a new client who believes he is being followed by a monster with a contract due soon. Dirk takes the case, but ignores the contract's end since he thinks the man is hallucinating. Afterwards, feeling guilty he decides to investigate. At the airport, Janice is now working for an airline and a big man named Thor is trying to fly to Norway with his hammer...

If the plot of the first book is hard to keep up, this one is even worse. But please, do not let that keep you away from enjoying this wonderful madness: Valhalla or St. Pancras, clean white linen sheets, devious marketing people and too many gods in need of worshipping. This book is just as crazy as the other one, full of hilarious and very confusing moments - it gets better every time you read it.

There is no edition of the BBC dramatisation of this book in Goodreads, but I have to recommend that as well. The cast is the same as in the previous book and Dirk Maggs once again did a great adaptation of the text. If you found the book confusing, maybe starting with the audiobook helps.
