When mobocracy was set to take a city, where LOVE proved to be the killer. A stranger in the home became the enemy that was out to see death. By any means necessary, killing her slowly, but surely. Softly, but in cruelty, abuse, torture of love in disguise of a holy matrimony. Friend or foe depends on which face Mama Rowe saw. Love can Kill! But she didn't want to leave the only son who loved her dearly, "No not to the wolves. They don't love us. Come go with me, Son!" Mama Rowe said. "Lets die and leave them here to this world that THEY love so much to hurt us like this. Let's Go!" Loosing her life, properties, and family at the hands of Papa Rowe - lies, deceit, a family frame and setup to disguise the truth. But the tragedy wasn't the end, just because Mama Rowe was dead! It WAS NOT over!Willington had not heard the fat lady sing. What Mama Rowe did not know was that her weakling little GAY son, was not as weak as they thought. It was his morals, that allowed him to tolerate and appease them. "Disguised in the City of Bedlam" was set in the city of Bucksnort, NC and centered on abuses, torture and robbery of an elderly woman at the hands of her family by rogue rules put in place by a mob. A story of tragedy, a prank, a show of power -a mob that set out to rule one small town called Bucksnort. But first they had to take Mama Rowe! As Willington Rashad Rowe separated from the misery and childhood experiences. "Chains In THE Storm," is a pocket size meditative series that accompany the series of novels. A gifted Black boy named Willington Rashad Rowe set out to "learn how to love" and finds life in a good time after chaos in the city of Bedlam.Only for reinvention of life to have been halted when they all had come out of nowhere "supposedly" to save him from a life he'd chosen for himself. "How dare he learns to live comfortable & clean within his own skin," they said, "He ain't struggling enough." But having survived, Willington felt blessed and renewed from a spirit that almost saw him to his grave. The celebration of a new life abruptly comes to halt. "He got it because Mama Rowe loved him more!" said the brother of the meek & humbled son . Halted - cold in their tracks! Jealousy. Hate. Envy. Secrecy. Even revenge.The tragedy of a family setup to use good for evil, in the bible belt, down south in one town called Bucknort, having learned of a "coming out" party. "No, not our little brother," said the siblings. "And not my son," said Papa Rowe. But as always Mama Rowe would have the last say, even about Willington's coming out of the closet. She was the mother and she knew all her children better than anyone. "Her son was to stay safe, just like all her other children," demanded the family matriarch, whose beauty rivaled the likes of a mature cindarella all over the town. In all their years she was the leader of the family, the breadwinner and the heir to the properties that financed and fed the whole family. No one knew she thought like a "man" too."Take a chill pill," the beautiful, strong Matriarch said. Solid was her power, as she didn't mind swapping from a beautiful lady to pull out her switch. "He is my son and he is your brother. You won't hurt him!" But with high powered, holier than thou helper to Papa Rowe and the siblings set out anyways, to destroy, destruct and steal - and to take his life as their own and oust their own mother from the family. "Wait," Mama Rowe said, "I love all my children - even the gay one. No, please don't hurt him", Mama Rowe begged.In the center of the Bible belt, where being gay was an act of deviance and gay love was nothing more than sexual promiscuity. "You must knock them down from their high horse," Thaddeus told Papa Rowe. http://m.terryashford.com http://www.terryashford.com
