1 " If I've got a Dad, and his name is Wormwood Rot, and he's in some heavy metal rock band called Grave Dirt . . . then I'm definitely meeting him!She stares at me awkwardly, and I'm about to ask again—maybe even insist—when she says, " Honey, why do you think he's on the news? Wormwood, I mean . . . your father? Becca, he's . . . dead. "
