Webb Owens arrives in a small redwood town with a series of magical sandwiches - the Stinky, the Paradox, the Northwester - that enchant the populace and save the local bagelry from certain death. Along the way, he pulls the owner, Reggie MacLeish, out of a ruinous grieving for his sister, and wins the affections of Amber Olara, an iconic California golden girl with a Mensa IQ. But Webb's real mission has more to do with the neon sign over Webb's Market, and the way he keeps staring at the hands and eyes of his customers, looking for clues about his past. A modern-day fable from the award-winning author of The Popcorn Girl and Nature Boy.

"Vaughn has a style that is reminiscent of a modern-day Steinbeck. He takes normal human beings and emotions and makes them extraordinary and profound... A living writer who is unlike anyone else." --K. Calen

"A stylistic cross between Tom Robbins, Kerouac, and Wes Anderson at their finest. Vaughn writes with a wit, tenderness, cerebral intensity and outright raunchy humor which fast becomes addictive." --CSLowe
