When the world's first perpetual-motion energy generator is stolen, who will be sent to try and get it back? An international spy? A world-renowned detective? A meddling mystery writer? How 'bout a recently-retired management consultant, a part-time genius college professor, a gun-toting Southern secretary, a couple of fun-lovin' redneck adventurers and a golden retriever named Quintoc? Hey, it's North Carolina, it's the best we could do. Road Kill is a home-spun Southern mystery with equal parts laughter and suspense. It's got thrills, it's got chills and it's even got romance. Not bad for a book where the main character is almost in his sixties.
