This genre-bending urban thriller tells the story of three residents of St. Louis as they fight their way to a better life. Little do they know that one fateful night, their destinies will converge when they all have a craving for Della's special-order eggs... and no one will ever be the same. Le'Angelo Brooks' parents died at the hands of a drunk driver. When his parents' killer, Rogan Stone is released for good behavior, Lee becomes hell-bent on revenge despite warnings from his older brother, Jonas, and his wise-but-nosy neighbor, Neru. When Ava Minnow's day at work is interrupted by her gifted son Dazzo's refusal to control his tongue, she shows up at his school to whup him. She is a strong single mom who believes in the power of the belt, and will do anything to make sure her son has a good upbringing. Desperation strikes when an unpaid loan has deadly consequences for her family. Dr. Clark Watson, principal at Happy Canyon Elementary School, believes the only way to save his community is through education. And he's willing to kill for his principles. In addition to hunting down derelict past students, he is determined to stop Osbourne, a prominent drug lord in the city of St. Louis, from running for public office. Lee, Ava, and Dr. Watson all have a taste for Della's special-order eggs and the wise counsel she serves up at the Waffle Diner. Will their cravings and desire for a better life prove fatal for all three when their paths cross on the night the Waffle Diner burns to the ground? "Scramble is an action-packed thriller! Williams's unique voice and cast of characters offers a story I've never before seen. Like Pulp Fiction meets Billy Baldwin." - SARA CONNELL, AUTHOR "BRINGING IN FINN"

Autorenporträt
Fred Williams is determined to bring readers a new storytelling experience guiding them down a twisted dark rabbit hole where moral ambiguity abounds. Known for his dark and suspenseful style, he discovered his passion for writing and jumped on the scene in 2019, leading to multiple short stories being published in various anthologies. Williams was featured in the 2019 Santa Barbara Literary Journal, Stardust, and had one of his tales published on Max Talley's Delirium Corridor. Born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri, his writing is influenced by his love for the Twilight Zone and the writings of William Gibson, George R. R. Martin, and especially Stephen King's Needful Things. His premiere novel, Scramble: A Perfect Recipe For Math, Murder, and Revenge, has been released to critical acclaim in August 2020, and his next two works titled Chrome #22 and Love Unrequited are completed and in the development stage. After a career in bodybuilding, modeling, and telecommunications, Williams now divides his free time between writing, working on his spiritual growth and the gym, and lives in Ventura, California.
