Shortly after arriving in Eddyville, Kentucky, successful landscape architect James Flynn's entire world is turned upside down. In a good way, he thinks.

After all, what could be better than having the two prettiest young ladies in Lyon County vying for his affections?

Suddenly, one of them needs an alibi that only he can provide. All she needs is for him to say they've been together for the past four hours. How much trouble could that possibly cause?

Advance Praise for "The Alibi"

"More twists and turns than a 60's dance marathon!"

"Locke is the world's greatest writer of Hillbilly banter."

"This is the one book you'll take to the beach this year. Or the pool. Or the lake. Or wherever you like to read."

"Tough, sassy, stark, funny, terrifying. Crystal Barrow and McKenna Ransom are my new favorite heroines."

"Readers won't soon forget this odd mix of often funny, often dangerous, bigger-than-life characters. The Alibi is Locke's best novel in years."
