Book Excerpts
EXCERPT 1:
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! Three more gunshots rang out as his son David, stamps three bullet holes the size of golf balls in his dad's face. David calmly watches him slide down the wall and slump forward. While Clyde lies dead on the ground, momentarily twitching, the only thing David notices is the death grip Clyde has on the pipe with fumes still seeping out.
Satisfied, David swiftly throws his hood on before walking to the mouth of the alley and looking both ways. When all seems clear, he puts his head down and scurries out. Unbeknownst to David, a pair of eyes had been watching the entire time.
EXCERPT 2:
David was the last person left at his mother’s grave site and he is torn. Although Angela had a beautiful funeral, he still can’t fathom the idea that she's gone.
“Mom,” he mutters, as tears stream down his face. He steps up to the headstone and begins to speak out loud, “I guess even you'd be surprised to learn that under the most trying situations, even your thought's can turn against you. My conscience has eaten me alive, stress and duress are enemies to my mind. They are two of the primary factors, of that often used terminology “Pressure busts pipes.” It is also our human nature that intertwines our uncertainty with lack of will power. It proves that at the end of the day, we are without faith in God nothing more than mere mortals.  I won't fret mom, because there's an inner me that is stronger than all of these elements combined.”
David was overwhelmed with emotion and has to gather himself as tears fall freely and he cries like a baby.
