I grew up in a time that Blacks, Hispanics, Women and Gays were being given rights and opportunities through affirmative action that were denied white people. This was done to try and balance the injustices of the past and create a sort of social equality. But in my case, these same minorities went further and mistreated me in numerous ways.

Sometimes these stories I am writing about scare me.

If there were a single story I've written that scares me the most - this is it. Should anything malevolent befall me or my loved ones after this book is written, I would ask that police start with this story first as a source of the crime.

In his Last Will and Testament he left me a tattered old leather saddlebag containing four items: an old Rochester camera, some undeveloped slide plates, a relic of a flintlock pistol which still...
