“Glenn pulled the pin on the hand
grenade…
… after counting to three, he lobbed
it into the crowded café. A blinding flash and it was all over. The essence of
the town of Magnolia was now nothing more than a twisted mass of flesh, metal,
and glass. Blood, coffee and biscuit gravy dripped from the ceiling on to the
wreckage. “Vengeance is mine!” he crowed while calmly walking away from the
tragedy he created.”
If that’s
the type of book you want to read, you’ve come to the wrong place. While Glenn
Michaels and a café in Magnolia are present in this book, hand grenades are
strictly out of the equation.
There is
some gunplay, a couple of suicides and a grisly murder involved (along with a
car bombing, a kidnapping, nudity and a seduction), but other than that,
there’s not much out of the ordinary in this story concerning the small
southern Ohio town of Magnolia.
The quick
synopsis?
A man has to
both overcome and embrace his past in order to maintain the spark which keeps
the small, southern Ohio town of Magnolia thriving.
