Crabb by Robert E. Kearns received a recent feature in Publishers Weekly:
"Catnip for conspiracy theorists." - PW
In 1980s rural Texas, to prevent annexation by its larger neighbor, Brian Zimmerman, by straw poll is elected the Boy Mayor of Crabb. Years later he recounts his story for the narrator, where he reveals the astounding details he gleaned while at a Mayoral Conference in Paris, and how these shaped his teenage years and beyond. The former Mayor of tiny Crabb speaks of the incredible secrets, exceptional events and the people he met that know the truth. Conspiracy, Cover Up and a Shocking Conclusion, Crabb is nothing short of a spellbinding read. Inspired by true events, Robert E. Kearns delivers a masterful yarn complete with his accustomed twists and turns, to keep the reader in suspense until the final page.
Publishers Weekly, First Lines: “Brian’s dead. His killers hunt for me now, I’m certain. It won’t be long.”
