Description
Civil War buffs and con men collide in this wickedly funny story of old-time relics and modern greed
Stuck with a wife he doesn't like, a job he hates, and a rapidly crumbling sense of self-worth, Dock Bass could use some good news. So when he learns that he's inherited an ancient house from a deceased relative he never knew existed, he is ready to make a move. Even better, the old place turns out to be a treasure trove of Civil War memorabilia. But as the onslaught of collectors, history buffs, and media houndsâ”including an easy-on-the-eyes television reporterâ”descends, Dock needs every stubborn and independent bone in his body to fight off the hustlers, opportunists, and scam artists.
