Burned-out private dick Michael McGill needs to jump-start his career. What he gets instead is a cattle prod to the crotch. The president's heroin-addicted chief of staff wants McGill to find the Constitution—the real one the Founding Fathers secretly devised for the time of gravest crisis.

If you don't "get" Warren Ellis this probably isn't for you. It's different and weird, but it's cleverly written, fast paced and it's completely Ellis. It also might ruin Godzilla for you... But it's worth the risk.
Nasty, brutish, and short. It'll take you a day or two at most to read, assuming you don't get too grossed out by some of the (apparently very real) awful things that take place.
