Publisher's Synopsis
The year is 1963 and Peter Fenton is a maths geek growing up in the small town of Mt Clemens, Michigan. Into Pete's life charges Jackie Barron, a six-foot-tall carnival con man with his own Corvair, plans for an illegal gambling parlour in his basement and wisdom and experience far beyond his 14 years. Eyeing the Flash is a wryly observed story of a young man lured into the carnival underworld - the cons, double-dealing and banter. Peter Fenton's story is powerful, intriguing and suspenseful by turns. Highly unorthodox and utterly compelling.
