Author Lonnie Mounts announced today that his book entitled “You’re It!” has been published and is now available for purchase.
Welcome to the life of Bruce Donner who’s been in hiding for over seven years after one fatal night in his hometown of Dandridge, Tennessee. Douglas Lake was the focal point of Dandridge where Bruce and his friends spent most of their time either in or around the lake. On one particular night, Bruce andhis childhood friend, Randy “Doc” McKinze, had a mishap on one of the back roads around the lake. Later that night, Bruce received a call and learned of the three lives he had taken that were in the car. He was unable to live with that kind of guilt or bring himself to face his family. With Randy’s persuasion, Bruce decided to run away and hide out. Seven years later, Bruce is confronted with his past in his birth town of Roderfield,West Virginia. He had been on the run for all of these years, living the life of a criminal, which he hated and now it seemed he would have to be on the run again… or maybe not. Bruce’s “accuser”, poses a challenge for him, and the adult version of their childhood game “You’re It”, begins! So disguised, he heads back into his home town. Oddly enough, his family was nowhere to be found, and no one recalled of an accident with a car in the lake, killing three people.
And now the game continues…
Lonnie Mounts was born in West Virginia and has also lived in Tennessee and Georgia and currently resides in Pennsylvaniasince 1984. Lonnie is a 1989 graduate of Northern Lebanon High School. He prides himself on being Southern born, Northern raised and Army Veteran Strong. He started his pursuit of writing while serving in the U.S. Army after some “Interesting Experiences” and life’s typical ups and downs. His passion is his ability to throw in different scenarios with almost every situation life can throw at you and create suspenseful and dramatic fiction that people love to read. He’s been called the “Blue Collar Author” because his background is not the “typical” of most authors. His only goal is to keep you guessing, entertained and wanting more.
After several years and four publishers later, Lonnie was all but ready to walk away from his literary journey after dealing with all of the stress that most publishers put on their authors. Lonnie cancelled all of his contracts and retained the rights to his first two novels, “Doctor’s Orders” and “Twin Deception” and stayed dormant for a few years. But as the years passed by, a story kept developing in his mind that would not stop growing. Driving a Commercial Front Load trash truck for Penn Waste would allow his mind the time he needed to get his creative thoughts flowingagain as he worked throughout the day and eventually make their way to paper. Lonnie gave into his desire to put action behind the written word and became an independent author, using Amazon as his publication outlet. His latest book “You’re It!” is now available as ‘Book One, Southern Roots’, with ‘Book Two, Hillbilly Code’, being released this winter, with Book Three to follow, sometime next year.
