Coconut Cowboy

Autor Tim Dorsey
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 feb 2019
Obsessed with the iconic Sixties classic Easy Rider, lovable serial killer and movie buff extraordinaire Serge A. Storms devises his wildest plan yet: finish the journey begun by his freewheeling heroes, Captain America and Billy, tragically cut short by some shotgun-wielding rednecks. Setting a course for the Florida panhandle, Captain Serge - with Coleman literally riding shotgun - mounts his classic motorcycle and hits the highway, but the America he finds is a whole lot weirder than anything Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper encountered. In a state where criminal politicians are more common than gators, Serge and Coleman discover one particular speed-trap locale so aggressively inept at corruption that investigators are baffled where to start. Saddle up for Serge Storms' most epic, lethal, and hilarious road trip ever, in Tim Dorsey's slice of America - where nobody gets out unscathed and untanned!

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Inspired by the classic biker flick Easy Rider, the irrepressible trivia buff and his drug-addled travel buddy, Coleman, head out on a motorcycle tour down the length of the Sunshine State, on a mission to rediscover the lost era of the American Dream. But going from small town to small town, they discover that some have lost much of their former charm—including one particular hamlet of skeezy rural politicos hell-bent on keeping prying eyes out of their ineptly corrupt style of local government.
Traveling across the state, Serge and Coleman engage in some high-life hijinks, complete with the state’s trademark crop of jerks, lethal science experiments, drug kingpins, double-crosses, unearthed bodies, barbecue and groovy tunes. And when a few innocent newcomers stumble into the mix, the stakes are raised to new backwoods heights.
Do you have a helmet? Then strap it on and join our dysfunctional duo!
