Description

It's Mayberry RFD meets Breaking Bad when a small town Opie-like boy become a big time drug dealer. This is the semi-true story (selected changes to protect the innocent and the guilty) of Rick Carle, raised with strong upstanding Midwestern values, until he takes a bad turn and travels down a crooked road. Join him on the wacky, sometimes heartfelt, often humerous ride that includes his encounters with State Patrolmen, Hell's Angels, and other unsavory characters. His outlaw journey should have landed him a 30-year stretch in the state pen...so how did Rick end up one of Ft. Dodge, Iowa's leading citizens instead?
