Hapless chicken-plant guard Hap Collins gets into trouble when he takes his best friend Leonard on a Caribbean cruise. The two find themselves abandoned in Mexico, saved from armed attackers by a geriatric fisherman and his lovely daughter, who's currently having to fend off a Mexican mobster who is also a practising nudist... Trying for once to stay out of other people's business, Hap returns to East Texas but is overwhelmed when he learns of the senorita's murder. He then persuades Leonard to return with him to Mexico to even the score.

  • I loved this! Very funny and quirky with a very unusual approach to English. Great storyline with many twists and turns. I will definately be reading others written by him.

    I have been on a joe R Lansdale kick four a few weeks now, and I am really enjoying myself.

    Joe R lansdale is the exceptionally creative person who wrote the short story that Bubba Hotep was based on. And I hope for your sakes, for your souls sake, that you have seen that movie! I didn't search for his work, until I heard he did comics, since then, Ive been coming used book stores and hounding ebay booksellers.

    This is not one of his Sci-fi's or his horrors, its a mystery in its own vein. Tengo and Cash meets queer eye and redo a house together in Texas.

    I am already pretty free and easy with a laugh, but these books give me fits of laughter over nothing but a line, a few words.

    I am A JOE R LANSDALE FAN!!
