Product Description
Product Description
Lee Bradshaw is a man who likes his solitude, his car, and his music. In short, Lee Bradshaw is a man who likes his peace. After a heated argument with his best friend, Lee takes off for the countryside and checks himself into ACRE LODGINGS. At ACRE LODGINGS, however, he finds a different kind of peace. He finds a place where responsibility does not exist. He does not have to worry about aging or disease. He will forever be taken care of, but the price of this peace is more than he is willing to pay.Seduced by Amelia, the hostess, humiliated by the manager, and scorned by the night man, a one-night stay turns into a few days. Coupled with his love for Amelia, Bradshaw finds himself indescribably confused. One minute he is throwing fists a Gordon Pachard in an effort to beat his way clear. The next he is sitting at a table playing gin with Mrs. Fitzpatrick. His only hope lies with the enigmatic H.Q. Kravek, a throwback to the Old West, and his best friend Bill Taylor. And if the true power behind ACRE LODGINGS has its way, a few days will turn into the rest of Lee Bradshaw's life...the rest of eternity.

A gripping tale that reaches into the depths of one's soul!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Acre Lodgings (Mass Market Paperback)
Ivan Turner brilliantly weaves wonderful characters with a great, non-stop story line and forces the reader to become an integral part of the story itself. His understanding and portrayal of each of the characters is exquistely satisfying!
Surely, this author is the next Harlan Ellison! I loved it!!!

By Sally Struters - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Acre Lodgings (Mass Market Paperback)
On the gayness scale of 1 to 10, where 1 being fairly not gay, and 10 being the village people in tiher underware, doing the macerana, I would give it a 9.56
