Woke up this morning to a 4.5 star
review for my little revenge tale, SPEED DEMON, by guest reviewer, Cole. In part, he said:
"I really loved this story. Like all of Rick Reed's works there always seems to be a haunting hum in the background of the storytelling. And that is exactly what this was — storytelling.

It is a cautionary tale about what one man will do to secure the affections of the man he thinks he loves..."
BLURB:Jealousy can be such an ugly emotion, but can it drive one to kill?
Jake is in love with Cayce, an older, best-selling author who thinks of him only as a friend. Cayce is enthralled—as is everyone else—with Garland, a gorgeous waif of a boy, famous for his eccentric clothes and an unparalleled desire to be at the center of attention.
Constantly.
Jake's discovery of something as mundane as a few over-the-counter sleeping pills pulls "Speed Demon" into a story of thwarted love, of a twisted triangle, and just maybe, a tale of crime and revenge from beyond the grave..
