A love story not for the faint of heart.

        This blog is excerpts from my novel "A Murder of Crows". It is the story of a life of a young girl,Destiny, who escapes the grip of an abusive father to land in the soft caress of death. Slipping through the fingers of reality she is thrust into the lives of three unlikely strangers, Savis, an albino sociopath, who as a boy who watched his father's head explode at the end of the scope of a hunting rifle, Roach a displaced Mexican with dreams of being a Rock and Roll God, and Ricky, a hapless redneck who left his rural home, skipping his mothers funeral and leaving his pregnant sister to raise their now orphaned brothers, to chase a dream of becoming famous. On his way to his new life, he finds Destiny, her bloody face exploded across his windshield. She awakes, rotting and covered in bloody bandages in a roach infested apartment. 

   States away, Tamer, a one armed cowboy with a ruined face, drinks away the face of a girl that saved his life, and in exchange he took hers. Naked and bleeding on his kitchen table, he sewed her back together, instead of calling the cops, he kept her a secret. Now she was gone forever blame himself for her assumed death. Is she dead? Will he ever see her again? Find out,  in A Murder of Crows, a love story not for the faint of heart.
