'Funny as hell, brilliant dialogue, great characters who I just want to hang with forever and an air-tight story-line that thinks of every contingency and plans accordingly.' -Tom McCaffrey, bestselling author of The Claire TrilogyWhat sucks about waking up next to a dead girl on a Saturday is, more than likely you’re gonna miss brunch.Just ask Sammy Junior-full-time house painter, part-time street artist and, as of Saturday morning, prime suspect in a South Tampa homicide investigation. One more hassle he simply does not need.Then there’s Penny Sullivan, a fifteen-year-old runaway who shows up in South Tampa that same Saturday morning with only her dead sister’s street smarts, a whole lot of survivor’s guilt, and a Canada backpack.Misunderstandings lead to Penny joining Sammy’s crew, giving her a glimpse of the house painting business-where mind-numbing boredom inspires an acid-trip world of distraction, art and healing relationships.A funny, fast-paced story about friendship and love, tragedy and redemption, and the always intriguing business of house painting.
