Tishomingo Blues
Elmore Leonard - Tishomingo Blues
High diver Dennis Lenahan is about to perform his regular stunt of diving into a small water tank from the roof of the Tishomingo Lodge in Mississippi when, way below, he sees a guy getting killed. Dennis has stumbled into one hell of a scene - unfortunate enough to be present when the cool dudes from Detroit are trying to muscle in on the local activities of the Dixie Mafia. |

Elmore Leonard - Tishomingo Blues
"Dennis
Lenahan the high diver would tell people that if you put a fifty-cent
piece on the floor and looked down at it, that's what the tank looked
like from the top of that eighty-foot steel ladder."
Things
are going along okay with Dennis' gig at the Tishomingo Lodge &
Casino in Tunica, Mississippi, "the Casino Capital of the South," until
the day he looks down from the high-dive platform and witnesses a mob
hit -- Dixie style.
