<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Sally Hinson could have guessed that his business partner would leave him a heap of trouble along with their real-estate holdings, but not that his partner's last shady deal would pit him against a growing group of oddballs, and their unusual dog, for a once-useless piece of land that now holds the key to each of their "American Dreams".<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Sally Hinson could have guessed that his business partner would leave him a heap of trouble along with their real-estate holdings, but not that his partner's last shady deal would see him competing with a growing group of oddballs, and their unusual dog, for a once-useless piece of land that now holds the key to each of their unique "American Dreams". Determined scientist, Kat; anxious and unemployed expectant-father, Livingston; a pair of young weed dealers; and aspiring reality-television star Brittany and her doting but far from docile grandmother, all stand between Sally and the deal of a lifetime, but is it the deal of his dreams?</strong></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><strong>"With its cast of misfits . . . comic insight into human foibles . . . Kevin Winchester has his own voice, and as his characters move deeper into their ultimately converging quests, Sunflower Dog achieves an unexpected poignancy. A delightful novel by one of North Carolina's best writers."--Ron Rash, author of PEN/Faulkner finalist and <em>New York Times</em> bestseller <em>Serena</em> and A<em>bove the Waterfall</em></strong></p><p><strong>"A rare delight--a rollicking dark comedy with a heart of pure gold."-- Jessica Handler, author of the Southern Book Prize-winning <em>The Magnetic Girl</em></strong></p><p><strong>"A rollicking read, made memorable thanks to a cast of characters destined to do for metro Charlotte what Carl Hiassen did for the state of Florida. Kevin Winchester's deft touch leaves you alternately laughing out loud and feeling a little sad for the redneck within. Sunflower Dog is an unforgettable novel of greed, small-time crookery and improbable romance. I loved it." --Celia Rivenbark, author of <em>New York Times</em> bestseller <em>We're Just Like You, Only Prettier</em></strong></p><p><strong>"This is truly where art meets craft. Kevin Winchester has artfully brought to life one of the most intriguing and quirky ensembles of characters you'll ever meet and crafted a compelling, don't-put-it-down story. For a first novel, it's stunningly good. For a tenth novel it would be stunningly good."--Robert Inman, author of <em>Home Fires Burning </em>and <em>The Governor's Lady</em></strong></p><br>
