Rihanna Wilding is a small town girl from a dysfunctional family. Camilla Peterson is her impulsive best friend. When the Peterson family plan to immigrate, the girls decide they would rather run away together than be separated. Johannesburg city lights spread before them with a promise of love and prosperity. Neither girl anticipates the nightmare that lurks within the shadows.

Within a week of arriving the girls plummet so deep into a maze of sex and drugs, that the only way out of the saga will leave one guilty of murder and the other on her way to death row.

Note: This dramatic book contains adult content

 

About the Author: Rihanna Wilding

I live in Cape Town, South Africa. I’m single and my friends call me ‘The terminator’ because ‘I’ll be back.’
They came to this conclusion after I managed to survive being shot, a serious bout of malaria and a touch of cancer; fortunately I am in good health now.

I live a quiet life, but every once in a while I get the urge to put on my ‘wilding’ shoes and step out of the norm. I do this with my novels. When I was younger I had a drug dependency and knew some ‘pretty out there’ characters. I use them to inspire the plots and characters.

Nesselorette stared at the cover on the old tattered book and wondered what did the writing and insignia mean. The old book was found under the padding that she laid on as a baby, when an old woman placed the basket at the curb of the Bellevue Psychiatric Hospital in New York City. She knew the book contained secrets of her heritage but felt the secrets could not be unraveled until she left New York City and traveled to Natchitoches Louisiana. This quest would lead her to encounter a truth embedded in the black arts in the bayou swamps. “Definitely A Page Turner”

 “Fiction with Fascination”

Clemon recently embarked on novel writing in 2012 and has written 13 fiction novels. His first published novel is entitled “Nesselorette-The Book. It is a very compelling story that takes the reader on a journey that could only be born from the mind of his creative abilities. Clemon is the type of writer that has a superb command of imagery and uses the allegory style of writing like an artist uses a paint brush. He is able to take fiction characters and develop stories that places the reader’s mind in the middle of the story as if watching a live theatrical play. Watch how he will move you to want more from each storyline that he develops. His novels are not the lengthy type of books filled with so much to read that the reader gets bored and lost. Clemon’s books are fun, fascinating and easy to read.

“I never knew I had an arm until this guy called out, “Hey you want to try and get a ball in the hole, sonny?” I was only nine, but mom said, “come on, let’s play.” This Carney guy with no teeth and a fuming cigarette hands me five blue rubber balls and says if I throw three in the hole we win a prize. He’s grinning, because he took mom’s five bucks and figures a sucker is born every minute. That really got me, because we didn’t have any money after Fernando took off, and he only comes back to beat up mom and steal our money. So I really wanted to get mom back something, you know, for her five bucks.”

A boy with a golden arm but no money for lessons. A mother who wants to give her son his dream before she dies. A broken down World Series pitcher who cannot go on after the death of his wife. These are the elements of The Pitcher. A story of a man at the end of his dream and a boy whose dream is to make his high school baseball team. In the tradition of The Natural and The Field of Dreams, this is a mythic story about how a man and a boy meet in the crossroads of their life and find a way to go on. You will laugh and you will cry as The Pitcher and Ricky prepare for the ultimate try out of life.

From Goodreads:

“Excellent Brain Candy! I ALWAYS read 3 or 4 books at a time- something hilarious (Jen Lancaster, David Sedaris,Tina Fey,Nora Ephron) a best- seller,a little non-fiction (I’ve been reading The Power of Now of six years,and I’m only on Chapter Four, but I really like it) and I have to slog through my book- club’s selection of the month.”

“Unburying Hope” is so addicting that I put my other books aside and pretty much couldn’t do ANYTHING until I learned the fates of Eddie, the mysterious, tortured and smoking hot vet (not the kind who gives your dog his flea meds),Celeste, the hopeful, Motor City-loving grafitti artist, and her fabulous bestie Frank.

The characters are authentic, the plot line is riveting- but- believable, and the book is thought-provoking and just plain fun to read. I can’t really say much more, because of the spoiler alert thing, but trust me- it’s a great read. The day after I read this book I woke up wondering how Frank was doing …..and experienced that post-book disappointment when you remember you finished the book, and you are going to miss your favorite characters.”

In the aftermath of a violent incident and near death experience, Sarah Lange is plagued by heavenly voices and dogged by a desire to return “”home””. Frightened by her desire to terminate her existence on earth, she checks into a trauma center in Malibu, California and meets Dr. David Sutton, an intellectual, a scientist, a reductionist and someone who believes in nothing beyond his immediate experience. David’s world is as divorced from mystery and magic as Sarah’s is alive and animated by it. Their sessions open up a dialogue about the separation of worlds—one easily defined and explained and one unknowable and waiting on the other side of human experience. Even as his faith in his profession fades, David struggles to bring his disturbed patient back to the real world. In a desperate effort to define herself, Sarah “”escapes”” and David must decide how far he is willing to go to save a patient and ultimately himself.

Made with Repix (http://repix.it)I was born in June, 1989 in a tiny, tiny town in Poland. In June 2008, I took a leap of faith and moved to United States. I dreamt of it since I was a little girl and somewhere on the way I said I would move to America when I turn 18. I landed at New York JFK airport 2 days before my 19th birthday. God really does work in mysterious ways.
What can I say? I am a fighter. I am a family person. I am a writer. I am a cat lover. I am complicated in a weird way. I am an optimist. In my head, my world is full of rainbows and unicorns. I have faith. I believe.
