Small Engine Repair
by John Pollono

THE STORY: Former high school buddies Frank, Swaino and Packie—now past their prime—meet off-hours one night in Frank's out-of-the-way repair shop under cloudy circumstances that only Frank seems to have a handle on.

Enter Chad, a plugged-in, preppy college jock, whose arrival ignites a long-simmering resentment that sets this taut, twisty, comic thriller on its breathless course.
