His local nickname is \"Blue-Suede\" and folks in Portland, Maine have long written him off as a loser. But one day Elvis Presley dies. Once the shock wears off, Byron is certain that The King's spirit has been reborn in him, and it's his mission to complete Elvis's career. The power of his delusion takes him all the way to Las Vegas, and propels him to the very top of the Elvis impersonator universe-and unforeseen disaster.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William McCranor Henderson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 099609847X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780996098472\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Willowdell Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/20\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 194\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.45d","brand":"William McCranor Henderson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44410429735167,"sku":"9780996098472","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fa48a389-02a2-4406-9f00-516d81c6838b.jpg?v=1697536188","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/stark-raving-elvis-william-mccranor-henderson-9780996098472","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
