Fatal Option: A Murder Mystery About Choices

With too many drinks in his system and a snowy night Steven Porter takes his car to pick up his daughter who is stranded in a house in the hills near Frederick, Maryland. He suddenly hits a young boy in the road as his car begins to swerve on the slippery road. That's the key moment in a new book entitled, "Fatal Option" by author Chris Beakey which is being released this week. Delmarva Public Radio's Don Rush sat down with Beaky to talk about the forces that shape the lives of the characters and the choices that they make.
