Bucky Dennis is a deadbeat divorc , a Vietnam War vet, and a bona fide scofflaw who's trying to make ends meet selling insurance in 1980s Verney County, Mississippi. During a routine visit to a prospective client's home, Bucky's crummy world gets weird. His life takes a horrific turn as he is forced into a holy heap of trouble with all matter of monsters and fiends. Some might call his adventures a comedy of horrors, while others might call it a hymnal. Hymns for whom, you ask? Well, probably for all those scoundrels out there who ain't half bad-and know just when to be the hero."As far as Southern Gothic Horror goes, this bad boy is top of the heap."- Paperback Horror"This book is a rip-roaring good time.

Parks has to offer; I don't think for one minute we've seen the last of Verney, Mississippi."- Laughing Bones
