About the Book

Fredrick Overall was one of those surprise babies, born to a 39 year old mom and 40 year old dad. He was a nuisance to his older siblings as well as his father, but dearly loved by his mom. Born into a family of strapping athletes, “Frail Freddy” as he became known, uses his brilliant but quirky mind to cope with his family and outwit a town filled with corrupt politicians. After tragedy strikes his family, he educates himself and builds a dynamic and very successful business. Fredrick’s humor and insight into human nature make him a formidable enemy to the power brokers in the town of Pressley, Texas
