About this ebook
Donald H Sullivan
I'm a native Floridian, retired from the US Army, I started writing in the army, mostly training and tech manuals. Boring stuff, but it whetted my interest in writing. I've written sci-fi, thrillers, mysteries, humor, fantasies, horror, and more. I'm now living in NC. While in the army, I served in air defense artillery, military intelligence, and psychological operations. I also worked in Federal Civil Service as a quality assurance specialist, ammunition surveillance. I love writing, reading, most kinds of music, and animals--especially dogs.

Raw Deal
April Baxter could think of no easier way to commit suicide. An overdose of sleeping pills and she would just drift off to sleep and never wake up. No discomfort. No pain. No more worries about the mess she had made of her life in the short year since graduating from high school.
She could take her time; there was no hurry. Her father, an army master sergeant, had a month remaining on an unaccompanied overseas tour. Her mother was visiting Aunt Gale in Florida and would be gone for the next two days.
On her way home from work, April had stopped at the drug store and bought the sleeping pills. After writing a note, she would be ready. She found a legal pad, sat down at the kitchen table, and began writing.
