     ...and the latest short mystery from Darrell James

     THE ART OF AVARICE

      Six time NASCAR champion Donnie Ray Banner

      is giving longtime incumbant Berk Cabot

      a run for his money in North Carolina's race

     for governor. Donnie's running on nothing but

     good looks and notoriety, but with his former

     high school sweetheart Charlise Upton pulling

     the strings, who knows what can happen.

     It's dogs and cats living together. It's  avarice

     as a form of art. And it's all just politics... as

     it's played in the south.
