About this ebook
Hired by Mr. Smith – the ever-wise and vigilant local convenience store owner – The Kid unwittingly falls into an intricate ploy by his employer to not only clean up the West Side but also restore needed change to the entire city by ensuring victory to the Westie challenger, Taylor Fastbender, in a hotly contested mayoral race. Now an integral pawn in the shifting circumstances, The Kid becomes witness, victim, martyr, student, disciple, and inadvertent hero to the workings of Mr. Smith. But through the difficulties of murders and threats, losses and vulnerability, The Kid learns to understand and appreciate things otherwise deprived or forgotten in his life. At last, he heads toward his true ambitions, but not before learning the true cost of his lesson and growth, all due to a Sage (experience and knowledge) and a Watch (time).

A devoted lover of words and literature, I believe a great story has not only the capacity to move and influence but also teach and give insight to humanity in aspects that are kept hidden otherwise. We are surrounded by the interesting and intriguing, add a dash of imagination, grounded by history and viola. It is my hope to engrain meaning into each riveting plot, twisting but tying a line of realism connected with experiences we chance upon in daily life. From a hovering space craft on the edge of a blackhole to a sheltered crumbling mansion in Victorian era England, there still remains the pertinent backdrop of humanism we see in the present.
