Shelby L Syckes

Slippery When Wet Shelby L Syckes

It's cold in Cumberland, and the Colonel's big day but, just as he accepts his applause, the day turns to death. Everyone knows who did it, and the Army closes the case quickly, but four teenage band-geeks stumble onto some facts that point in another direction and decide to dig deeper. They find sex, drugs, betrayal, and more. Slippery When Wet intertwines murder, high school hijinks, the Underground Railroad, race relations, and the Vietnam War into a wild ride through 1970s Western Maryland. Buckle up and hang on, because Shelby's new book is fast, fun, and full of surprises.
