Black Bootee

About the Book

The title of the novel Black Bootee came first.  The author set himself the challenge of constructing an entertaining story around this unusual title that would hold the audience’s  attention. Using wicked satire, biting irony, and sly sarcasm, Clair Francis Norman weaves a tale of sex, violence, murder treachery, mystery, and general mayhem that is intended to keep the reader guessing right up to the final paragraph.  In this story the author has assembled a cast of the most unlovable, loathsome, pretentious characters ever seen in the world of fiction.  With the 1960s as the backdrop, the drama unfolds in North America, France, and the Far East with surprise developments at every turn.
