Synopsis

Three-year-old Julie has a secret which she has been told NOT to tell. If she tells, her mommy will be hurt terribly. Secrets in the head of a three year old, however, are like thinking that the sun will forever hide behind the clouds. Eventually, they will both come out, and when Julie’s secret does come out it tears apart two families while bringing them closer together at the same time. “The Monster’s Lap” is a real story based on the life mis- fortunes and betrayals of a young three-year-old girl and the family that loves her. You will have an intimate look into the ups and downs of this family as well as the little known process that goes on from discovery to the final verdict in court. Can a three-year-old express what has happened in her life enough to convince the District Attorney to take on this case, or will the word of a well spoken, well liked thirty-year-old man be more believable? “She can hardly talk. I didn’t do anything and after all, who would believe a three-year-old?”

Author Biography

Drew Bankston lives in the Rocky Mountains with his wife, two amazingly perfect dogs, and a garden.

Before he started writing science fiction, Drew received his bachelor’s degree in Bio-Ag Sciences from Colorado State University. After that, just to shake things up, he never really used that degree but worked various jobs in retail and Asset Protection with some really important people who are way too dignified to be named here. He’s still working but would eventually like to write full-time and stop working for other people. He likes pie and chocolate, as everyone should.

Book Excerpt

The Monster's Lap: Based on a True Story

After considering everything, the judge reduced the bond to $50,000. This was still too high for his family to handle, and so Charles was to remain in jail. Doug had no idea at that point in time that Charles would eventually blame Doug for all of this because of the objection he had to the bail reduction. More on that later. The funny thing was that if he had received the reduction in bail and bailed out of jail, he would have then been required to report to the powers that be and begin his therapy or go back to jail. He was very object to taking the evaluation sighting that it was inhumane and degrading, so in a way, Doug had at least temporarily, saved him from that fate.
