Reduced Ransom! — Mike Faricy

Mickey and Dell, two long-suffering halfwits, come up with the idea of kidnapping at a bargain basement price. What could possibly go wrong? Well, maybe a victim who doesn't want to be returned, another with a husband who doesn't want her back, one who's tougher than her kidnappers, and another who's entirely the wrong person. Not to mention local thug Huey Evans who is looking to settle a score.Faricy is America's hottest new mystery writer... The Dirty LowdownAnother entertaining crime novel by the likes of Faricy... Robert CarraherA cross between Carl Hiaasen and Elmore Leonard with a sprinkling of Robert B. Parker...
