Undermined prenatally by a drug abusing mother and later by his hometown's now infamous lead-contaminated water, Flint native DeMarco "D~Man" Wright seemed destined to be a menace to society. Knowing only violence and criminality as a way of life lands the juvenile delinquent in and out of the criminal justice system numerous times until he is taken in by a seemingly loving, religiously devout couple. However nothing could be further from the truth, as the popular televangelist and his wife are both vile predators whose dark, twisted fantasies revolve around pedophilia. The foster home they sponsor doubles as an abusive house of horrors, bringing adolescent nightmares to life... That is until the volatile DeMarco makes his presence felt.
Darrel A. King has been writing ever since the age of eight. His first published work of fiction was penned during the fall of 1976 as a student of Mary Field’s Elementary School on South Carolina’s Daufuskie Island. This effort was an adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkein’s “The Hobbit,” that he also wrote and illustrated. It was published in the school’s quarterly periodical, “The Daufuskie Kid’s Magazine.” Darrel King has written stories and numerous poems, several of which were published in the 1995-1996 “Poetry Anthology” by the National Library of Poetry in Owings Mills, Maryland. During the 90s, Darrell King became inspired by and attracted to the lurid tales of inner city crime. Dramas he read in novels by great writers such as Donald Goines and Iceberg Slim captivated his attention. These tales prompted Mr. King to begin his literary career writing his very own stories of urban crime and inner city drama. Darrel King is the author of Mack Daddy: Legacy of a Gangsta, Dirty South, How Do You Want It? and Mo' Dirty : Still Stuntin’ is his latest release and the much anticipated sequel to Dirty South. Darrell King was raised in South Carolina's Dufuskie Island. He now resides in Maryland with his wife and children.
