This is a story about a young runaway girl named Mandy Wilson, who showed up on Buckholt Street one day, where she was being beaten with a blackjack by an asshole who went by the name of Slim Edwards. I chased Slim off with a German Luger pistol, and I took both Mandy and her charming young daughter, Sophia, under my protection and into my house. Mandy had run away from her home in Ohio because her father had raped her and made her pregnant with baby Sophia. Mandy was just sixteen years old when her father first abused her. And I was eighty-four years young on Blackjack Day. Eventually, we fell in love, and Mandy became my common-law wife. Trouble soon followed between the Hayses, the Wilsons, and the Edwards families, who were moonshiners from Kentucky. This is a love story about an unlikely pair, Mandy and me. The moral of this novel is that you are never too old or too young to fall in love. And Mandy and I are the main characters. We say, make love not war.
