How did Grandpa afford that new car in 1925? The hidden truth lies in a lost picture at the bottom of a box

A grieving restaurant worker who recently lost his girlfriend in a neighborhood gang rivalry in Chicago saved an innocent young woman who was being sexually assaulted in a dark alley but due to fate, ironically he made a surprisingly discovery.

A soap-opera star stumbles into real life in post-apocalyptic Chicago.

Wake Me Up Before I Die, is the first book in the Trilogy of the trials and tribulations of the Lureaux Family. Book I introduces Johnny Lureaux in the 1930’s as a young child in Selma, Alabama and the extraordinary circumstances he must face just to stay alive. Facing death as an Alabama illegitimate child, through an abusive Grandmother, an early marriage and then into the mindset of a sniper in the Korean Conflict, Johnny Lureaux will ignore every chance he is given, in each life he is awarded, with repetitive bad choices. In Book I, the final roles of his 27 years of life, as a South-side Chicago bandit and a young father, will fall under the darkness of the deceitful life he has chosen.  As the Blackfoot’s song of his past echoes in the distance, death soars with the giant blackbird over him. It is final and as Johnny fights to discover the connection of his past to his presence, he will be transcended into the unity of Life and Death.  In the place between body and spirit he prays for a new existence and screams to PLEASE WAKE ME UP BEFORE I DIE!

Told in first person, a college-bound freshman describes her departure from home and all the obstacles along the way.

“Why would you have Sammy Sosa’s baby socks?”
