West Fargo, North Dakota, Author Publishes New Book

"Black and Blue: The Fallen," a new book by Shaun Chapman, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

"There is always one moment in childhood when the door opens and lets the future in." This is quoted by Deepak Chopra, an American physician, and this quote can never be further from the truth for the young Shaun Chapman.

It all started with his and his family's arrival at Lake City-well, not exactly Lake City, but just around that county. The moment they arrive at their new home, a doublewide trailer, they are welcomed by the vicious look of Wade Morris, the former owner of their newly acquired property.

Since that cold, unexpected visit, things start to run downhill for the Chapmans, especially for Shaun.

The more people Shaun meets, the more experiences he gains. There is Hester the Molester, the devil who continuously haunts him and his family; Sunshine, the beauty who captures his heart and fills it with love; and Destiny, the lost yet never forgotten child.

About the Author:
Shaun Chapman currently resides in Dawson Springs, Kentucky. His primary inspirations for writing this book are Sunshine; his children, Destiny and Rachel; and God's message to him, telling him to "Go forth, tell them the truth, and fear not for I have sent you. Tell them I'm real; tell them the truth will set them free."

The author is donating 50 percent of all earnings from the sale of the book to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital.
