About this listen
On the surface, Bucky has everything he needs. A beautiful family, a humble home, and the rural life he has always wanted. Then again, he's a deer.
One night, while out looking for his delinquent daughter, he comes across a self-destructive man whose honesty Bucky finds sad yet strangely refreshing. But when his only fawn, Beauty, starts coming home late after hanging out with the wrong crowd, the cracks begin to appear, and fate is about to push something through one of those cracks he never expected.
So begins a chain of events poised to do some quality control in Bucky's own circle in a unique, unusual, and unforgettable commingling of species.

*My name is Ellis DeAngelo.* I tend to get caught in the midst of trouble quite often. I'm an unlucky guy, but fortunate to have friends to help me out. These aren't the memoirs of a geisha you'll be hearing. And most definitely not some soul-searching discovery that depicts eating, praying, and loving. This is so much better...or worse, depending on your perspective.

Story
Our prisons and mental hospitals are filled with tragic stories like Tuesday Storm's. Her early childhood was riddled with torturous "games" and violent physical attacks. She was isolated from the rest of her family, locked in an attic with nothing but a bare bed and a bucket for a toilet, and fed just enough to be kept alive. The experts say it's next to impossible to find the soul's light in a dark past like Tuesday's.

Confirmed grump Eddie Valentino placed the ad. Hotshot 20-something Talba Wallis knew exactly how to answer it. And thus was born the dynamic duo of New Orleans private detectives, one cynical, 65-year-old Luddite white dude with street smarts, and one young, bright-eyed, 21st century African-American female poet, performance artist, mistress of disguise, and computer jock extraordinaire. Think Queen Latifah and Danny DeVito.

Civil War ghosts bent on killing me, Skinwalkers who just want my body, and a vindictive spirit linked both to my bloodline and my destiny... It turns out the dead still hold a good deal of influence over the world, and they don't want to give it up. I'm in way over my head. Fortunately, I'm too stubborn to quit."

If there was such a thing as an urban legend in Cotton Creek, it was Grady Judd. He'd broken the heart of every woman he'd ever kissed, and he'd kissed a plenty. Many tried to rope him, tie him down, and drag him to the altar, but Grady wasn't the marrying kind. Until he showed back up in Cotton Creek this time to discover that he's not the only heart breaker in town, which leads to a whole new game and an entirely new question. Could Grady Judd finally have met his match?

Narrator does an excellent job.
It’s Southern Gothic meets cartoonish melodrama. The highlight of the audiobook is the narrator. He really sets the tone. It’s like Rocky & Bullwinkle meet Cormac McCarthy.

Quirky and fun! Loved it!
A very Rolston book. I think I could have guessed it was him who wrote it even if I didn't know. Quirky, endearing, and great characters. Laughed out loud at one part I won't reveal. Great work!
