Naked Came the Leaf Peeper: A Serial Collaborative Novel by Brian Lee Knopp et al

Twelve authors based in or near Western North Carolina celebrate Malaprop's 30th Anniversary with their contributions to the serial collaborative novel, Naked Came the Leaf Peeper.  John P. McAfee, Susan Reinhardt, Vicki Lane, Tommy Hays, Wayne Caldwell, Fred Chappell, Alan Gratz, Annette Clapsaddle, Gene Cheek, and Linda Marie Barrett outdid themselves as they built upon a story arc brilliantly imagined in the first chapter by Brian Lee Knopp and brought to a laugh-out-loud finish by Tony Earley.

Mayhem in Mayberry: Misadventures of a P.I. in Southern Appalachia (Paperback)

By Brian Lee Knopp
$14.95

Description


As a licensed private investigator in western North Carolina, Brian Lee
Knopp could outrun enraged pit bulls, slink unseen and unheard through
the tangled forests, and find missing evidence in the bottom of a
dumpster. To get the goods on his subjects, he would perch in trees,
lie motionless for hours in camouflage, drive rented sports cars and
U-Haul trucks, ride horses and bikes, even paddle whitewater kayaks. He
could talk his way out of almost every predicament imaginable-except
for how to succeed as a P.I. without failing as a human being.
