Official synopsis Publisher
Leonard Elmore er en populær forfatter, som også er oversatt til norsk. Vi kjenner ham fra bl.a. “Get Shorty” og “Stay Cool”. I denne boken møter vi Father Terry som vender hjem etter å ha jobbet i en “misjonærstilling” i Rowanda. Han er en prest som er tøffere-enn-toget, og nå trenger han penger til sine hedenske barn. Hva er da bedre enn å presse mafiaen for penger? Han slår seg sammen med rappkjeftede Debby Dewey, og snart suser kulene.
