- Blurb:
- A blinded-by-love bridegroom named Arthur Wilkinson got mercilessly picked clean by his new wife and her accomplices. This was accomplished through more-or-less-legal real estate investment legerdemain. After seeing how callously this sweet, helplessly naive, overbred preppy got turned into buzzard-meat, Travis decides to go after the villains and get back the money. Arthur's former girlfriend, Chookie, is signed-on to repair poor Arthur's broken spirit while aiding the investigation.
There's quite a lineup of slimy characters - a terrifying seducer-rapist redneck, the no-mercy con artist wife, a desperately-hungry lawyer, and a troupe of well-rehearsed swindlers.
