Finalizing the uploads for Hot Heads. Soon to be available on Amazon and Smashwords
When the local policeman's bike
is stolen, Steve, an aspiring pre-teen detective, is intent on
solving the crime. Meanwhile, his dad, plans to win a
gardening contest, and organize a bowling match to win a donated pig,
who the local children call Patch. The pig charms most
of the local populace but a small contingent, including Dirty Ronnie
– an evil vagrant hobo – aims to win the pig for it's nutritional
value. Steve and his friends embark on a mission to solve the bicycle
crime, help his father win the competition, and rescue the doomed
pig.
Steve
concludes that it must fall upon his friend Sarah, who has become
quite attached to the pig, to win the bowling competition and save
the animal, but his dad's
bowling extravaganza is fraught with problems, as are his attempts to
construct a fish pond to win the garden contest.
Tempers
begin to flare and the village is divided as false accusations fly
and rival factions begin fighting over the pig, the garden contest
and the village fate festivities. Things
get worse the night before the event when Steve's dad is arrested for
bike theft, and the pig mysteriously disappears.
Of course,
it all turns out well in the end, despite the bungling misguided
efforts of our armature detective.
