Stephen Hunter has written another very entertaining novel incorporating Bob Lee Swagger, guns, and the world of roundy roundy NASCAR racing. He just recently experienced the spectacle of big time "stock car" racing. He obviously is not an automotive expert, but just as obviously has had some coaching. He remains the best I have read when the story involves firearms. He manages to incorporate the cars and the guns in a twisted yarn that hides many things from the reader and still be edge-of-your-seat entertaining. Unfortunately, the story does drag in spots, but the reward for the reader is in how he wraps it all up and ties it together at the end. All in all, a short but satisfying read.
