The Richard Jackson Saga
Book 4: In the Movies
Coming of age stories don’t have to be all teenage angst, they can be fun-filled adventures. With humor, we follow a young man’s coming of age in the late 1950s. Starting in the summer before his freshman year it follows him through high school and beyond. He finds wealth as an inventor and fame in Hollywood as he searches for a girlfriend. Wealth and fame prove far easier than girls.
The fourth book, ‘In the Movies’ has Rick firmly in the movies. Our young man grows in his capabilities both in and out of the movies.
Rick finds that fame may not be all it is cracked up to be. Finding girls is not hard, between the Bosses Daughter, an Old Flame, and a Bad Girl from Hollywood he has his hands full. Joined by his family in California they buy a mansion with hidden secrets. The adventure continues ranging from a stampede to a group of bank robbers running into the Square of Death.

The move into Jackson House has its surprises. While the family flies to England for their Holiday, Rick works his way there as a deckhand on a freighter.

Book 6: Surfing Dude
The sixth book, ‘Surfing Dude,’ has Rick working and living in California while preparing for a surfing movie to be filmed in Hawaii. Continuing his Heroic ways he finds that like the rest of the world, films do not always go as planned.
From Chipmunks to Tigers the animal kingdom has its dangers. Throw in a group of crooked town officials, follow up with a flight crew down with food poisoning and our young man has his hands full. While money keeps pouring in he doesn’t seem to have much luck with pretty girls, at least the luck a fifteen-year-old boy wants.
