"Wonderful...Clyde Edgerton tells us another of his lovely tall tales."--Los Angeles Times Book Review
Listre, North Carolina, is jumping. The Sears twins, Ted and Ned, who run a Baptist college, have opened Nutrition House for overweight Christians. Meanwhile their Project Promise is busy matching the educationally disadvantaged with wayward youth who want to share their talents. Enter Wesley Benfield, a prime candidate for Project Promise, with a special place in his heart for Baptist songwriting, preaching, and a wide, iron-pumping girl over at the Nutrition House. The Lord only knows where Wesley will go from here...

From the Publisher:
A couple of years ago I went to Oklahoma to give a lecture at a writer's conference. One of the authors on the panel was Clyde Edgerton, whom I had never met nor read before. He was amazing--very generous with the conferees and gave the greatest banquet speech. I picked up Killer Diller at the conference (this is before I worked at Ballantine) and read it straight through on the plane home!
About the Author:
Clyde Edgerton is the author of eight novels, five of which have been New York Times Notables. He is a professor of creative writing at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington and performs with his band, Rank Strangers. Author Web site—www.clydeedgerton.com.
