You know the thick blue rubber bands the grocery store puts on broccoli? A fed up woman can do a lot of damage with those. California Bookwatch "Urban, rough, and outrageously hilarious." Literary Titan "A fantastically entertaining novel." SPR""Cutting, empowering, and unforgettable."." Manhattan Book Review"A wild adventure with blood, guts, spit, gore, guns, and four by fours that will leave you wanting more." Seattle Book Review"A fast, compelling ride... I along with many others will be looking forward to more." US Review of Books"A climax that will be sure to surprise and delight." Shirley Lyle's a big girl who's always kept her profile low. But now - fed up, ready to set fire to her past, her job and her trailer - she's dragged back into a role she's forsworn by a man who presses her buttons with a hammer. And when her partner-in-revolution, Ulyana-the-Ukrainian-stripper disappears, her car empty and bullet holes in the glass, Shirley has no choice but to reach deep, find her sass, put flame to fuse. Who took Ulyana? - The Russian mob?- The man who beat Shirley down?- The 83 year old drug lord who refuses to die? All her life Shirley's believed herself a loser, but now survival demands a new self image.... If you like tales that make your ribs hurt from laughter, your eyes fill with tears and your spirit soar...
