More with Cal and Uncle Bill

By W. Jack Savage

But for bad luck, Cal Daniels might have gone somewhere in life. Instead he wound up a forty-year-old overnight grocery stocker and ex-con living in his Uncle Bills back apartment in Temple City. Over a beer one morning after work, Cal meets a woman and brings her home and nothing in life will be the same. From the daily journal he began in prison, Cal recounts the events that began that day as it seems every step away from that morning somehow brings him two steps back toward it and before it ends, his infamous background will give way to a different kind of fame that will leave him well traveled and nearly dead three times.
