AMERICAN DREAMERS by T. Jefferson Parker - SIGNED FIRST EDITION BOOK

An original short story by triple-Edgar-award-winning author T. Jefferson Parker.

A marvelous example of publishing skill. This book is quadrupled signed: First by Parker; then by C.J. Box, who wrote the introduction; then by Brian Wiprud, who contributed the Afterword; and finally by Phil Parks, who took the ten full color laid in photographs, three of them of the authors and one of himself.

The story is about an American couple in San Diego who own a book store which is going down the tubes, as so many independents have, an over leveraged house and have two young children. They owe.

When our primary character is offered a job driving a load of shrimp to New Jersey, his wife points out it is her cousin and must be okay. Bad things ensue.

Parker has won three Edgar Alan Poe Awards, two for novels and one for a short story. That talent is on display here.
