Haint Punch

Beschreibung

Lucy Burton is sitting on the biggest political story of the year. It's uncomfortable. Deke Kipling is hunted by militant feminists and strangely impotent men's rights group. He needs a vacation. Both get what they ask for - and hard. The media is scrambling for access to a well-armed political three-way as a sex-pot evangelical and an oily congressman scramble for Mississippi's newly vacant senate seat. And is the "Old Bear of the Senate" planning to take on American's unstable tycoon-cum-president? Or is he a latter-day Guy Fawkes, planning to blow the whole thing up? HAINT PUNCH is a cocktail of sleazy kingmakers, victim dealers, hashtag crusaders, dateless nymphomaniacs, and bourbon-soaked aristocrats. Topical and hilarious, touching a deep and widespread feeling that we must cry for the current state of affairs, or have a stiff drink about it.

Autor

Richard Murff has covered humanitarian issues across Latin America, Iraq, Ukraine, Libya and Clarksdale, MS, to name a few places. Murff spent his early career in advertising and marketing for a handful of global corporations. His less impressive jobs included writing sermons for a preacher who is very likely certifiably insane. After several years in the financial sector specializing in capital markets for government debt and collateralized securities, the economy blew-up. He has ghostwritten memoirs, business books and regional histories. His work has appeared in The Bitter Southerner, Delta Magazine, The American Spectator, Sail, The Daily News, and others. His books include Pothole of the Gods, Yellowcake, One Last Hour and Memphians. The Mint Julep cookie was created in his honor.
