Dr. Xav's Book of Sausages
Xavier P. Cole hates his life in Dallas, Texas. Then, when his best friend Greg suddenly dies, Xavier takes on a mission to find Greg's long-lost daughter in southern Germany from the time Greg served abroad in the army. Xavier travels to Germany, but soon out of cash in a foreign country, he takes on a job helping a local butcher and learns everything about German sausages that he never wanted to learn. Meanwhile, little does Xavier know that he is actually finding himself and learning to face the uncomfortable realities of those he left behind in Dallas.
