More DescriptionIn the hilarious, tradition of Elmore Leonard, former narcotics agent Joseph brings brilliantly to life the bungling misadventures of an upstanding citizen turned unwitting drug bitingly funny caper rich with action, irony, and originality.
All his life he has stayed in the comfort zone: never taking any chances, never breaking any rules. Now, Michael Goodman, bookkeeper, father, and widower, is about to change his ways. It starts in a Fort Lauderdale parking lot, when Michael changes a flat tire on his pink rental car. Suddenly, the mild-mannered accountant, desperately trying to find a job and pay his daughter's mounting medical bills, is in possession of a load of pure, undiluted heroin. With a white-hot bag of powder and scarcely a clue, Michael leads the cops, the DEA, and one very sexy woman on a wild-goose chase through the deadly world of New York City drug dealing. It's a wild ride that might make Michael rich and might even land him in love-as long as it doesn't kill him...
