London, England, Ted Smart, 1998. 1st Ted Smart Edition, Binding: Decorative Boards, Fine/Very Good/fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall 0333715500 Hardback One afternnon in November, JoLayne Lucks drives to the Grab N'Go minimart to buy spearmint Certs, unwaked dental floss and one ticket for the State Lotto. Three hundred miles away, a red Dodge Ram pulls into the handicapped parking area outside the 7-11 convenience store in Florida City, dispensing would-be white supremacists Bode Gazzer and his sidekick Chub for their Saturday fix of three six-packs of beer and five Lotto tickets. And, for once, both JoLayne's and the white boys' numbers come up. Now, by rights, 28 million dollars is money enough to satisfy any American's wildest dreams. Even split three ways. But Bode and Chub have other ideas - the brightest of which is to form their own strong-arm militia to save America from certain doom. They need all the money they can get. They need Jolayne's ticket. Illustrated laminated boards.
