No Hope for the Hopeless at Kings Park
Three riveting stories that take place at the Kings Park Psychiatric Center. All are individual stand-alone stories, which are connected through intriguing characters. The first is set in the 1960's, during a time when the hospital was still basically in full operation and focuses on a troubled adolescent girl. The second story adds to a popular urban legend and takes place almost a decade later, leading into the 1980's when the hospital was a very different place. The final story takes place close to the present time with flashbacks into the past that tell the tragic story of a man's life.
This is my very first book, which has been released as a softcover trade paperback and an E-book. I used Xlibris to publish this book, which is currently ON SALE NOW through their Xlibris online bookstore. However, signed copies will soon become available through this website shortly. The book is also being sold through Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble. Please, check back soon for details!
Attention: I'd like to issue a public apology to my readers. It seems in my haste to get my first book published, I have overlooked a few editorial errors. The most notable error can be found at the very end of the first prologue, which is entitled "Group 2." It was made before I rearranged the order of the stories. I am deeply sorry. I assure you steps will be taken to avoid that kind of a foul up for future books. That being said, I believe you will still be able to enjoy the stories just the same. Thank you for reading my book and or visiting my website.
