On the Ides of March, our hero, Raleigh Whittier Hayes (forgetful
husband, baffled father, prosperous insurance agent, and leading
citizen of Thermopylae, North Carolina), learns that his father has
discharged himself from the hospital, taken all his money out of
the bank and, with a young black female mental patient, vanished in
a yellow Cadillac convertible. Left behind is a mysterious list of
seven outrageous tasks that Raleigh must perform in order to rescue
his father and his inheritance.
And so Raleigh and fat Mingo Sheffield (his irrepressibly loyal
friend) set off on an uproarious contemporary treasure hunt through
a landscape of unforgettable characters, falling into adventures
worthy of Tom Jones and Huck Finn. A moving parable of human love
and redemption, Handling Sin is Michael Malone's comic
masterpiece.
