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.

If you want to know when Drew’s next book will come out, please visit his website at http://www.drewbankston.com, where you can sign up to receive an email when he has his next release.

You Can Run But...

It's hard to do the right thing sometimes, but not when you're used to doing the wrong thing all of the time. When you have good intentions but you never follow through with them, life has a way of causing you, forcing you, to do the right thing. If you're wanted by the law for crimes committed, and you've decided to turn yourself in, it's usually the best thing to do. Putting it off can bring grave consequences. I hope that you enjoy this short excerpt from my book, "The Monster's Lap" and that you'll consider purchasing a copy. You can't make up real life!

“Yeah,” Sharon said. “He went to another city out of the county because he said that he had a bad feeling about this weekend.”

“I thought that he was going to turn himself in?” Doug asked.

“I thought so too, but he has things that he wants to get done before that happens, so he’s putting it off.”

“I hope that he doesn’t wait too long,” Doug said shaking his head. “It will look a lot better for him if he turns himself in than if he’s arrested.”

“I know daddy,” Sharon said. “I know.”
