Summary
'Lunch' Pumphrey is missing $47,000 and hustler and ladies' man John X. Shade is the man he's looking for. John X. is one step ahead of the bad ol' boy when he rolls into the steamy bayou town of St. Bruno, where he first learned how to take men at pool and their wives for pleasure. A lot of folks in the bayou have debts to collect from John X., and he may need more than his cue stick to keep from paying with his life.

Publisher's Notes
Recently jilted by his young wife, Rene's father, John X. Shade, has come back to St. Bruno. Broke, boozed-out and too shaky to hold the pool cue that once made his fame and fortune, John X. seeks the sons he abandoned years ago for more than an ordinary reunion.
