If you have read Time Sandlin, you know what you're getting into. In his forward that he titles "notice" he quotes Mark Twain in saying: "Persons attempting to find motive in this narrative will be prosecuted; persons attempting to find a moral in it will be banished; persons attempting to find a plot will be shot."
Very funny. Stupid mob bagman accidentally kills the president of the United States when he finds him in bed with his girlfriend Honey, who charms everyone she meets. Discredited reporter stumbles upon the mess when they secrete the body in the freezer of her ex-boyfriend, a gay pro footballer. Now the mob wants the money the bagman was supposed to be delivering, the secret service wants to find POTUS and the reporter wants to get out of all this alive and with the story of the century.
I took this book to the beach not knowing what I was going to find. Engaging, hilarious, relevant, witty, fast-paced, are a few descriptors. It's about a down on his luck journalist who stumbles upon the story of his life - the murder/accidental death of the US president. The cast of characters and the bizarre storyline make this a fast and fun read. I'm planning on reading more of Tim Sandlin's work.
