A big spread in Cancún, a 193-foot yacht, celebrity friends, a beautiful wife. For six years Dave Henderson lived a life of luxury in the Class Notes section of the Yale Alumni Magazine. But when the Editor discovered that Dave and his spread, yacht, friends, and wife were all bogus, he had a near-coronary, and something had to be done about Dave.
James Nelson tells the story of Dave's counterfeit life and its aftermath, to open this unconventional collection of short stories, essays, and curiosa.
"Dave Henderson is one of the truly great non-existent Yalies. And there have been many.
-Christopher Buckley
"I tried manfully to put down Killing Dave Hendereson, etc...., but I failed miserably. I devoured it in a single sitting."
