"Moonshine Mafia" is a rip-roaring story about bootlegging moonshine, the greatest heist in West Virginia history, two cat-house prostitutes dipping into a hidden stash of cash, a career criminal who come comes from a long line of "can't stay out of trouble and jail" kinfolk, a star football player-turned-lawyer who returns to his West Virginia home town to defend his family...and a dizzying array of other elements, too many to count, that make this story shine. It's laugh-out-loud, jaw-hit-the-floor, edge-of-your-seat, wonder-what's-next, fun. The dialogue, as well as the overall narrative, is spot on.

Larry is quite obviously not the sharpest ax in the shed, but it certainly makes for some memorable comedic moments. that leaves the reader yearning for more." This is an incredibly well-crafted work of fiction that leaves the reader yearning for more." >This is a work of fiction, although certain characters, incidents, and dialogue are based on real-life events from the author's rich array of Scots-Irish, West Virginia family. Having been given such a grand gift of characters to live with and write about, their stories gave wings to the author's imagination and flights of fancy.
