ORDER NOW!!! Friends in Low Places 
How strong are the bonds of friendship?
In his debut novel, Vince Wetzel explores the evolution of lifelong friendships and how they withstand the strains of human failures.

Jim organized their annual guys trip to the lake. He picked the date. He booked the spot. He even chronicled every adventure over the past 20 years in a ragged notebook. Now, he is a box of ashes that his four closest friends will take up to the lake one last time. Over the course of their final weekend together, they will read Jim's journal through his eyes, reliving their shared laughter, life moments, revelations, and regret while coming to accept their grief.
 
Friends in Low Places is a funny, poignant, sometimes heartbreaking portrayal of male relationships and the support they provide as boys mature into men.
