Last Chance Town: Further Adventures Along the Road Without End

by Ron Kearse

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

GENRE:   Fiction

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BOOK BLURB:

In this, the Further Adventures Along the Road Without End, we fast forward from where the story left off in 1983, to Vancouver, BC, in 1988. Warren Givens has completed his second jail sentence four years previous, after which he's vowed to lay low and stay clean so there's no return to "Clown-College," as he calls it.

A chance meeting at a pub one night introduces us to Daryl Kellerman, at first as Givens' one night stand, which quickly develops into a love and live-in relationship between them.

Warren's distant past comes front-and-centre in the form of his birth mother, who lost him to Social Services before he was ten years old, and has been looking for him ever since.

We get to know Warren's past and what's made him the way he is.

This, along with some other drastic life changing occurrences, propel Warren into a life he never thought he would live.

Later, we get to know what life was like living with Givens through Daryl's eyes as he reminisces over the years since their initial meeting.

Last Chance Town is the third book in the Road Without End Trilogy.

EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT:

There was a commotion going on outside, and it was sounding pretty serious. I glanced at my clock radio, and it was 2:34 AM. I looked out the window to an empty cab in the middle of the street and a guy chasing another guy wearing a turban around the car with a knife!

“HOLY SHIT!” I yelled.

Daryl gave a startled jump. “What?”

“There’s a guy with a knife chasin’ another guy outside!”

There was a phone by our bed, so I dialed 9-1-1 right away, all the while keeping an eye on the action outside. I told the woman who answered what was happening while the guy with the knife was yelling. “I’ll kill ya, you fuckin’ foreigner!”

“The cabbie’s trying to keep his distance,” I said. “He’s trying to stay on the opposite side of the car from the guy with the knife.”

“What is your address?” The woman asked. I no sooner told her than I heard sirens and saw three cop cars, lights flashing and sirens going, squeal on to the scene right away!

“Wow, that was quick,” I said. “The cops are here already!”

“Yes.” She sounded amused. “We’ve had other calls about this incident. Now I just need to know your name.”

“Ah…” I hesitated, not trusting anything that has to do with uniforms. “It’s Warren.”

“Okay thank you, Warren,” she said. “Are you at…” and then she told me this address.

“Uh, yeah. How did you know that?”

“It appears on our monitor with your phone number. We’ll follow up with you in a little bit.”
