Francis Bay is the most intriguing spy you’ve ever met. He’s a poet, a polyglot, a professional liar, an adulterer, a mystic, a confessed murderer, and- by his own calculation- a dead man walking. He’s seen too much, done too much, knows too much about some very important people.

Bay has retired to his sailboat in a Caribbean paradise, cheating death for now, searching desperately for the truth, and trying to write a novel loosely based on his career. Then he meets a local obeah man, who leads Bay into a druggy, supernatural world- and amazing redemption.

Bay’s journey of discovery is funny, agonizing, disorienting, and, ultimately, more real than we might imagine.

Organic online reviews of Marshall Evans’s previous novels:

• “(FNNF-able) took me on a wild roller-coaster ride in a strange land. I laughed because it was funny, I laughed in delight at Evans’s audacity and ability to mess with my mind. His storytelling is compelling… If there were more stars I could add, I would. I loved The Wheelman, I loved this, I hope he writes another soon; I want to read it.”
• -“Absolutely elegant…the writing just painted a wondrous adventure and journey of sharing. I highly recommend (The Wheelman.) It’s the kind of book you add to your reread list.”
• “I just finished reading The Wheelman, and I must say that it is as raw, complex, and honest a book as I have ever read.”
• “(The Wheelman) is a fascinating historical novel… Brilliantly done… It is a masterful work.”
