A Year of Wonder — Jerry Peterson

Come with the grandfather/grandson writing team of Jerry Peterson and John Smith as they take you from such distant places as a DMV office in Minnesota to a backyard in Wisconsin. In the first�"“The Purple Paper Eater”�"everything goes awry when Smith tries to renew his driver's license and encounters a clerk who has an appetite for paper. In the second, “Digging in the Dirt”, one of Peterson's favorite characters from his John Wads crime novellas investigates the coldest of cold cases, the century-old murder of an infant found buried in a backyard garden. Peterson and Smith offer up 24 short stories and poems in this collection that follows the months of the year. Enjoy.
