Imagine what a pig might say if one were to ask why it lives in one of Manhattan's swankiest hotels: "Swine not?" Plunge into this irresistible tall tale filled with zany characters and wry humor cooked up by the boundlessly imaginative icon of tropical rock, Jimmy Buffett.

When Southern belle Ellie McBride moves her twins from Vertigo, to New York City, they wouldn't dream of leaving behind the family pig Rumpy. But the posh hotel where Ellie has found work (and living space) has "No Pets" writ large on its portal. So hiding Rumpy from the hotel staff -- -especially the ultra-carnivorous hotel chef, who would like nothing better than to transform their pet into pork roast -- -becomes imperative.
