Gutshot Straight: A Riveting Crime Fiction with a Fervent Following for Fans of Thrillers

<p style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">“Lou Berney’s novel is so energetic, so droll, and so wheezingly funny that it accomplished what no book ever has before: it made me forget to eat lunch.”<br />—Stephen Harrigan, <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author of <em>Challenger Park</em><br /><br />A fast and funny caper in the tradition of Elmore Leonard, Carl Hiaasen, and the Coen Brothers, <em>Gutshot Straight </em>brings a fresh new talent into the crime fiction fold: Louis Berney. He’s already won raves for his short fiction collection <em>The Road to Bobby Joe and Other Stories </em>(“Rivals the work of contemporary hotshots T.C. Boyle and Ralph Lombreglia” —<em>Chicago Tribune</em>). With <em>Gutshot Straight, </em>Berney is “all in”—sure to win a fervent following with the story of “Shake” Bouchon, fresh out of prison and on the straight and narrow path…after maybe just <em>one</em> last job.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p></span></p>
