 Lou Berney (Okemos) (Okemos) Talk and Signing with Lou Berney, author of Whiplash River About Whiplash River: Charles "Shake" Bouchon, professional wheel man and not that bad of a guy for a bad guy, has left behind his old life and know owns a little restaurant on a beach in Belize. But running a restaurant is no picnic, and Shake is deep in debt to Baby Jesus, a cherubically murderous local drug lord. And then when Shake thwarts an attempted hit on a customer at his place, he learns once again that no good deed goes unpunished. Next thing he knows, his restaurant has gone up in flames and he's on the run not only from Baby Jesus, but also a pair of lovebird assassins and a beautiful but relentless FBI agent. Even with enemies like that, though, Shake's biggest headache may turn out to be his new best friend -- Harrigan Quinn, the mysterious older gentleman whose life Shake saved. Shake soon finds himself halfway around the world and neck-deep in a dangerous score that he'll never pull off -- unless he can convince an old friend to help.

Lou Berney signs Gutshot Straight
Authors @ The Teague presents Lou Berney
Lou Berney and Gutshot Straight Lou Berney llegeix Gutshot Straight.Lou Berney will sign and discuss his new novel Gutshot Straight. Berney, an Oklahoma City based screen writer, used the hiatus in his life caused by the 2007 Writers Guild of America strike to produce his first novel. Remarkably, it does not read like a movie in waiting but rather as an absorbing novel that with great effort might be adapted for the screen. The book is fast and funny with outsized characters, frequent double crosses, and an appealing protagonist. Come and help us celebrate Lou's achievement. (benjclark)… (més)
