Why read it?

1 author picked Little Elvises as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I enjoyed the character of Junior Bender in the first book in this series, and I loved this one even more.

Junior is one of those wrong-side-turned-right-side-of-the-law characters, and sometimes it’s fun to ride shotgun with a character who gets his hands dirty. Rounding out the music industry connection is an old record producer who had some sketchy business dealings back in the sixties.

I confess, just the mention of the sixties for the backstory was enough for me (I love experiencing that era through different stories), and with an already-loved protagonist, I was all in.
