From the Publisher
Gerald Duff has taken his considerable talent as a literary novelist and added his patented humor to produce his first mystery. Author Lee Smith says, "Duff is a Southern Elmore Leonard, only he's a lot funnier." An apt comparison. Memphis in May. The International Barbecue Contest, the Cotton Carnival, and now two murders. And it's all on the shoulders of homicide detective J.W. Ragsdale to solve both crimes before tourists start leaving in droves. J.W. and his partner Tyrone sift through an unusual cast of characters, ranging from black gangs dealing crack, to an heir apparent son of Southern aristocracy, and to the newly crowned Maid of Cotton. To make matters worse, someone is intent on turning out mass market bad barbecue, the unpardonable sin in Memphis. When J.W. takes the investigation to his native Mississippi Delta, what he finds could change his life forever, or end it. Author Roy Blount Jr. says, "It's got a detective who knows how to talk and what to do and an author who knows how to write. Between the two, they don't miss a trick."
