    In [SQUELCH PROCEDURES], MLA Chernoff contemplates the ways that trauma, poverty, and strict gender norms rupture the concept of childhood. The tension of multiple meanings in the word “squelch” acts as a guide to Chernoff’s unique voice, which uses language to swaddle intrusive thoughts and mimic defense mechanisms such as avoidance, depersonalization, and derealization. [SQUELCH PROCEDURES] is an ambitious attempt to show how healing and regression are often indistinguishable, while the past is always predisposed to happen more than once: first as tragedy, then as farce.

    Prime Minister Robert Saleh feels helpless as his economy stagnates year after year. When a representative of the shadowy organization known as Armageddon offers funding for several national-level infrastructure projects, he can’t resist signing an overly expansive contract. News of this secret agreement, which includes a level of mercenary support for national security, sparks international concern. 
    Saleh hopes to play Armageddon’s investments against those of Australia and the United States, who’d focused their interest and resources elsewhere. Unfortunately, the cash flowing into Saleh’s pockets blinds him to the devastating consequences he’d unilaterally set in motion. 
    Gar Randolph and his ever-changing team of technical experts receive the call to keep an eye on things. “Remain unseen and unnoticed. More importantly, neutralize anything that isn’t in the best interest of the Saintly Islands.”   
    Events escalate until Gar takes decisive action.
