Josh Flowers is character developed in a previous book by me, Goldie' Garden. In his early 20's, Josh starts a security company which provides personal protection to the many sports and entertainment figures who are featured at the many (over 50) casinos in Biloxi, Ms. Josh is a young man who was a highly decorated Marine until being seriously wounded in Afghanistan. Josh received a hip replacement which left him unable to remain in the Marine Corps, but is able to function almost without restriction in private life. He is surrounded in this novel by his dad, who is assistant G.M. at a large casino, his mom, two sisters, a yellow Labrador retriever, his two sisters, and a virtual comedy act of his grandmother and her boyfriend. His company is a group of five men, four ex combat veterans, and a computer hacker. Lots of the comedy is provided by his 80sh grandmother, Doris, who likes her wine and her men. His sisters evolve in the book and face some real-life hurdles.
