The young detective has a sidekick named Sheila but she's often taken for granted...Sheila is over for a visit in Ricky's bedroom...Ricky is sitting on the edge of his bed watching a vintage private eye show..Sheila sighs in relief to finally be someplace where she can relax and be herself...She hops on Ricky's bed, propping herself up against the headboard...Thusfar, Ricky hasn't taken one eye off of the TV show and has yet acknowledged Sheila's presence in his room. Sheila speaks as Ricky's eyes are glued to the small TV situated atop the dresser..."How come you can't change that stupid sign on your door to say both our names? Call it SHEILA & RICKY'S DETECTIVE SERVICES or how 'bout CURTIS & CARTER'S?".....A commercial finally breaks Ricky's concentration...Ricky glances back at Sheila...He's not startled by her presence...Ricky nonchalantly asks "Hey Sheila..Ate already?".....
Book ISBN: 978-1478273721.......... Set in rural Virginia, ‘FALSE DANDELIONS’ is a contemporary Southern crime fiction novel filled with romance, small town secrets, broken dreams and murder as locals from Spotsylvania County and Fredericksburg, including a young disabled Iraq war veteran, stop a misguided band of Washington, DC criminals from setting up shop in their quiet town. When Lamar returned home from Iraq they gave him a hero’s welcome but he actually never felt like a true hero until he pulled off his greatest mission ever. A mission that will make this disabled vet a local legend, and a mission that will literally blow you away. Jesse is a rising star but when his mother’s body was found in the murky waters of the Rappahannock, he trades his prized guitar for a shotgun. Ever since Turtle was little, he was always somebody’s errand boy. Now, twenty years later, he decides to break the mold and that is just the beginning of many mistakes Turtle will make. Randolph Randy Camp’s ‘FALSE DANDELIONS’ is about the lives and dreams of underdogs. When you’re stuck in a nowhere place, physically or mentally, you dream of leaving. When you’ve been a nobody and strive to become somebody, sometimes you succeed, sometimes you don’t. Once again, this prolific award-winning writer paints a straight forward picture of contemporary Southern life and reminds us that, regardless of your income or race, there’s a touch of Jesse in all of us and there’s a little Turtle in all of us.
‘FALSE DANDELIONS’ is available in paperback and eBook (Kindle) on Amazon.
