Description:

Monk saw a sign. It was that sign that brought a Buddhist monk off the roads of West Texas to the Ataboy Diner. Not only the sign but the secrets he keeps. The locals soon give him another mystery to solve: the not-so-great train robbery. From chicken round ups to rodeos our bare-backed, backwards-riding Monk is called on time and again to tell a story: He tells about Issa the Mason who Wouldn’t Be King, about the Death of the Phoenix, about Opossum Boy and a Ghost Thief. He tells these stories to a crazy cast of characters including townies like waitress Isabella, the Queen of the Proverb, and to passers-thru like Bubba the wise trucker and the New Agers of the Caravan called the Gift…Come on in and sit a spell! Pull up a booth and settle in. Let Monk tell you a story!
