chevy summer

My new ebook, available at Amazon and Smashwords.

It's 1963, before the Beatles and the Kennedy assassination. It's a lazy summer with nothing for the teenagers in the small town of Calhoun, just outside Cincinnati, to worry about except rock'n'roll, drag racing, and dancing. But then the murders begin. Read the first two chapters at Chevy Summer.
