Not Just Pretty
by Burt Hurlock
Phoenix “Phil” Perdue is polite, respectful and mostly deferential, except when it comes to boat racing. When he’s suddenly implicated in a crime he didn’t commit, he flees, bending to an invisible hand and finding himself among a band of up-and-coming drug runners who cultivate his passion for building fast boats. Only the faster he makes his boats, the more complicated his life becomes.
