Customer Reviews

An absolute delight

Superb first novel by Sam Hodges details the life of young journalist Beauregard Forrest, whose local stories never make it onto the front page, or even the front of the local section (hence, the nickname B-Four). Forrest gets himself mixed up in a few controversial stories, meets the girl of his dreams, and attempts to resolve his future.Wonderful details, colorful and engaging characters, and written by someone who really knows the South. Highly recommended.
