"Rob D. Smith's raucous debut novel Good-Looking Ugly centers on an unforgettable protagonist in the fiercely loyal and fearsomely violent Daniel, who will stop at nothing to protect his family from the Kentucky Fried Mafia. Finger-lickin' good!" - Scott Von Doviak, author of Lowdown Road

I got the book hangover. Stayed up too late finishing "The County Line" by Steve Weddle . Couldn't stop reading about Cottonmouth, the Rudd sisters, Everett, Beans, Jimmy the Hook and the rest of the motley citizens of Columbia County. Drops in 2024 but preorder now! amzn.asia/d/2rkHFFP
