Naked Came the Leaf Peeper (Paperback)

People are dying in mysterious ways around Asheville, NC. Men once linked to a nefarious land deal are now dropping faster than the fall foliage. Assassin-for-hire Garnell Lee Ray has one last target in her sights--but not if Detective J.D.Klontz can put all the pieces together first. He soon discovers that everyone is hiding something--or somebody--and all hell and hilarity will break loose before he finds out the truth. A zany Southern Appalachian take on The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Naked Came the Leaf Peeper is a serial collaborative novel representing the collective wit and genius of twelve western North Carolina authors. Charles Frazier, author of Cold Mountain, praises, "Some of WNC's best writers...let their hair down and run a literary relay race. Except, in place of a baton, they pass along lit firecrackers, greased pigs, whoopee cushions, rubber chickens, and loaded tater guns. Hugely entertaining..."
