Jay Bechtol and The Great American Coward

Author Jay Bechtol with his novel The Great American Coward paired with a Big Gulp of Dr Pepper

About the Book: The coffee shop Myron Flynn walks past every day disappears and he's the only one that seems to notice. Unless he's mistaken and this is how it's always been. As a self-avowed coward, Myron decides he really doesn't want to know the truth.

Myron, with the encouragement of an unlikely partner, is dragged into a strange world where he has to face his fears. Fears of two strange men making his city vanish, fears of connecting with another human being, and fears of his own shortcomings.

All while racing against the unimaginable timeline of destruction.

About the Beverage: Jeff recommends pairing his novel with a Big Gulp of Dr Pepper because “Dr Pepper is a blend of 23 flavors, dark, sweet, and strangely mysterious. The Great American Coward is a blend of multiple genres, dark, with an underlying sweetness, and is strangely mysterious. And if you get your Dr Pepper in a Big Gulp cup, that crunchy ice will give you something to gnash your teeth on as the story intensifies.”

About the Author: Jay's stories skew toward horror and supernatural through no fault of his own. His short stories are available in various magazines and websites, he is a staff writer for Crystal Lake Publication's Still Water series, and his debut novel The Great American Coward is available from Golden Storyline Books. Jay is a Southern California boy currently living in Homer, Alaska. Go figure.

THE GREAT AMERICAN COWARD is available on Kindle from Amazon or Golden Storyline Books.
