The book follows freelance writer Harry Benson on his journey to Gatorbelly, Tennessee, where he seeks out compelling human interest stories.
Harry's quest introduces him to a colorful cast of characters, including the titular Billy Joe and Bobby Joe. He forges a strong friendship with Jo Jo Radish and a comical rivalry with a group known as the Pool Boys. The narrative, while lighthearted, delves into themes of race, social issues, and the complexities of finding love after loss.
"Duncan Bock: The Joes" marks Doug Riebock's second book with Dorrance Publishing, following his 2023 release, Hunted. Riebock, who is retired and lives in South Elgin, Illinois, is currently at work on his third novel, The Boathouse. The book is a collaboration with his long-time friend Mark Duncan, who passed away on May 1, 2023.
