PAPERBACK PUBLISHED BY NO EXIT

MEET DAISY A PICK OF GRACE AND DIGNITY 

MEET HEROD A DISAPPOINTMENT


Written in his own words, and guided by a man who collects glasses in a local pub, this is the story of Herod “Rod” Pinkney’s search for Daisy Lamprich, a young woman he first sees on a decade-old episode of the Judge Judy Show, and who he now intends to marry. 

When Daisy is located in the coastal city of Huntington Beach, California, he travels there with his good friend and next-door neighbor, Donald, a man who once fought in the tunnels of Cu Chi during the Vietnam War and who now spends most of his time in Herod’s basement. 

Herod is confident that the outcome will be favorable, but there’s a problem. Will the course of true love ever run smoothly for this unlikely hero? 

MY REVIEW

I wanted to read this A funny and touching story of Daisy because I loved reading The Rosie Project and The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry.

The first words that keep me wanting to read more.

My name is Herod Rod Pinkney and I’m in love with a girl called Daisy.  

The fun part that came to my attention very early on in the story that Herod Rod Pinkney was trying to write a book. He showed his first chapter to his agent who collects glasses at a pub. It may seem odd that Ric works in a pub collecting glasses and not in a conventional literary agency, but that wasn’t somethings that concerned Herod. It was in fact, Ric is the one who suggested that Herod write a book, before the new landlord moved in. When Ric offers Herod Rod Pinkney for a drink he ordered only a small drink, because he had a book to write and books didn’t write themselves. 

I loved reading this story about Herod Rod Pinkney. Daisy is just one of those stories you can’t leave as you are trapped in finding out all that happens to Herod throughout his entire venture.

ABOUT AUTHOR J P HENDERSON

J PAUL HENDERSON was born and grew up in Bradford, West Yorkshire, gained a Master’s degree in American Studies and travelled to Afghanistan. He worked in a foundry, as a bus conductor, trained as an accountant and then, when the opportunity to return to academia arose, left for Mississippi, returning four years later with a doctorate in 20thC US History and more knowledge of Darlington Hoopes than was arguably necessary. (Hoopes was a Pennsylvanian socialist and the last presidential candidate of the American Socialist Party). American History departments were either closing or contracting, so he opted for a career in publishing, most of which was spent selling textbooks, in one position or other, for John Wiley & Sons. He lives in a house in England, drives a car and owns a television set. And that’s about it.
