Guns Are Us is a spirited, irreverent tale of inadvertent adventure, heart-stopping action, and menacing crime following Gene and Alton, two retired mathematicians out to save the world. After Gene survives unsettling encounters in remote Louisiana -- including a roadside diner with more than standard fare on its menu, and a run-in with a murderous drug dealer upended by the world's ugliest man and his equallly ugly dog -- Alton suggests they become vigilantes. Alton and Gene blaze a path from one interstate exit to the next, using stealth and guile to fight crime and to save damsels in distress.
