Book details
Overview
Takkies Spencer was a charming TV host. A daily segment of his show was a "Man on the Street" quiz. After one particular episode, Takkies and three contestants were murdered. Henry Atkinson, a retired patent attorney, saw one man, Justin Upsom, fall out of a luggage carrier as dead people are wont to do. His lovely wife, Carolyn, wanted to write the story, but Henry distracted her when he fell on the tarmac. It took Cousin Shelley, and a mythical dog named Frankie, to bring them all together on the banks of the French Broad.

"Takkies last video" attracted little attention until long after Takkies' death. By then, three other men had died violently, and the other people from the video were missing. Henry Atkinson was waiting on a flight when he saw one victim fall out of a luggage carrier. Even at a busy airport, this attracted attention. Henry was a retired lawyer and a baseball devotee, but when he and his cousin Shelley, a former hitman, heard about another victim, the chase was on. Why were these men being murdered? It couldn't just be due to their answers to the quiz. Who was killing the cast of "Takkies last video?" With the help of a non-existent dog and an alcoholic former cop, Henry and his family learn more about the French Broad than they knew to ask.
