Love, Lust, and a 3-Legged Dog by Malcolm Allred

I have had the privilege of speaking with Malcolm Allred to find this masterpiece is humorous and somewhat suspenseful.  His first edition novel, Love, Lust, and a 3-Legged Dog, deals with coming of age in the South.  Fine description captures the reader with riveting wonder and refuses to let go.  Be prepared for some unexpected twists and turns, some of which actually were inspired by true life.  I recommend this lighthearted novel to anyone who feels the need to smile.
