From the bestselling author of The Wax Pack, comes another eye‑opening road trip adventure into a pocket of iconic pop culture—professional wrestling—starring the Iron Sheik, Hulk Hogan, Tito Santana, and many more larger‑than‑life characters of the WWF of the 1980s. In 2005, Brad Balukjian left his position as a magazine fact-checker to pursue a dream job: partner with his childhood hero, The Iron Sheik (whose real name was Khosrow Vaziri), to write his biography. Things quickly went south, culminating in the Sheik threatening Balukjian’s life. Now seventeen years later, Balukjian returns to the road in search of not only a reunion with the Sheik, but something much bigger: truth in a world built on illusion. Balukjian seeks out six of the Sheik’s contemporaries, fellow witnesses to the World Wrestling Federation’s (WWF) explosion in the mid-‘80s, to unearth their true identities. As Balukjian drives 12,525 miles around the country, we revisit the heady days when these avatars of strength, villainy, and heroism first found fame and see where their journeys took them. From working out with Tony Atlas (Tony White) to visiting Hulk Hogan’s (Terry Bollea) karaoke bar, we see where these men are now and how they have navigated the cliffs of fame. The Six Pack combines the spirit of a fan with the rigor of an investigative reporter, tracking down former WWF employees, childhood friends, and mutually curious archivists. Wrestling is perceived as a subculture without a cultural home, somewhere between sport and theater—often dismissed as silly and low‑brow. But what makes this book so compelling is the humanity beneath each wrestler. The Iron Sheik, Hulk Hogan, and the rest of the cast were not characters in a comic book movie. They were real people, with families and feelings and bodies that could break. Most of them did, in fact, break; some have been repaired, but none of them will ever be the same.

She made him an offer he should have refused. Joe Campbell's an average guy. Average job. Average looks. Even his name's average. Just a regular old Average Joe. Until the fateful night he walks into a seedy bar and meets a mysterious woman with a tempting offer-ghostwrite a novel depicting her life as the mistress of one of the most notorious Mafia kingpins in recent history. After initially refusing the offer, curiosity and a longing to escape the trappings of his ordinary life get the better of Joe. As his story-in-the-making begins to take shape, things take a sinister turn, and Joe finds himself sinking deeper into a hole he may never get out of alive. First his wife vanishes. Then he's framed for murder. With the mob, the law, and a band of two-bit criminals in hot pursuit, Joe turns to the only person he can trust-his estranged brother, someone harboring secrets more dangerous than his own. With no place left to run and nowhere to hide, the brothers, along with a down-on-his-luck detective, must band together if they are to survive the night-a night where no one will escape the crossfire unscathed.
