by W. C. Tuttle
In the rowdy, dry town of Piperock, cantankerous cowboy Ike Harper finds himself roped into the town’s first Thanksgiving celebration—complete with Pilgrim tableaux, reluctant Indians, and a pair of raffled turkeys. As tempers flare and old grudges simmer, Ike navigates a world where prohibition has turned whiskey into raspberry juice and every festivity threatens to erupt into chaos. A sharp-witted, darkly humorous Western tale of small-town absurdity and the perils of forced merriment.
