Kill Switch

In a fresh relationship with local beauty Coco, Elmo slings the ball-and-chain lingo as early as page two. But, when he adopts a female racing greyhound named Kill Switch, he finds he’s bought more than he bargained for. This four-legged lady won’t put up with his attitude, and becomes head of Elmo’s household. With the prize money of a big race only weeks away, and Coco expecting a diamond ring for Christmas, Elmo needs to win Kill Switch’s affection and make her a champion race dog.

Will his permanent beer haze help his charm, or is it the problem all along? On a landscape of blue-collar characters, Raphael Iacocca exposes the man-child roaming the meadows of this novella…and like so many, he’s just a chip off the old block.
