Ripped Current

Watch out for that...Pom-A-Weenie? The return of Daniel O'Dwyer!
Ripped from the current headlines, Daniel O' Dwyer is doing his best to survive on his Oak Island paradise during these unprecedented times; through this uncharted territory; in the midst of these seismic events... The pharmacy director at Boiling Grove Community Hospital dies at his desk, leading Daniel back to the hospital, the last place he wants to be. At first, the death seems natural, but with the aid of deceased sovereign Charlemagne, King of the Franks, Daniel discovers more than he bargained for.

Meanwhile, Daniel's germophobe sidekick, Willie, invents a unique way to socially distance and still carry on a conversation. Will this be helpful to Daniel or just an annoying hindrance that makes him want to scream at the top of his lungs? And what happened to his girlfriend Jaclyn? It seems she left town and left him to wallow in self-pity, loneliness, and Fat Tire Amber Ale. But his time is soon filled with a new female-a Pom-A-Weenie named Lucy-and a young neighbor boy whose mother is seriously ill.

Will Daniel (and King Charlemagne) discover the truth? Will Willie starve to death on the Silent Cow? Will Daniel find new romance (besides the Pom-A-Weenie)? Will Daniel (gasp) have to go back to work a third time? With old and new quirky characters, "Ripped Current" is the fifth in the Oak Island series and the third Daniel O'Dwyer adventure which began with "Ripped Tide", a 2017 McGrath House Indie Book Award Winner in the Humor Category.
