Reseña del editor:
Singer-songwriter Eddie Long wants to be a country music star but he’s stuck playing the Mississippi casino circuit. After his wife dies at the hands of a serial killer, Eddie writes the best song of his life. It goes straight to number one. And that’s when all the trouble starts. Jimmy Rogers is a freelance writer covering the Mississippi music scene. He sets out to write the life story of Nashville’s latest sensation but his research unearths some facts that could ruin Eddie’s burgeoning career while making Jimmy a huge best-seller. On the other side of Nashville, former R&B stars, Otis and Estella run a fried shrimp joint where everybody goes after hours. And one night, in walks a dead man, at least that was the rumor. The mysterious Chester Grubbs, a man with a troubled past who is trying to make amends for the biggest mistake he ever made. Chester and Otis go way back and the depth of their friendship is about to be tested. Throw in an opportunistic country radio DJ, a pair of wily record producers, and a naïve young singer-songwriter and the stage is set. Everybody plans to make a killing, one way or another. Depending on your point of view, Fender Benders is either a skewed look at the country music industry or a clear-eyed view of a damn screwy business. Either way, bestselling author Christopher Moore said it’s more fun than a bucket of drunk squirrels, so what’re you waiting for? It’s murder on Music Row, where things don’t always turn out as planned.
