Co-written by Ernest Hekkanen and Ed Roy, Good Ol' Boy Willis V. McCall (New Orphic $29.95) alleges that Lake County, Florida was like a country unto itself from 1945 to 1972. Sheriff Willis V. McCall made sure the cheap black labourers showed up for work and that civil rights activists stayed far away. Presented as a historical novel, Good Ol' Boy examines the man allegedly responsible for the roadside shooting of two black prisoners wrongfully accused of raping a white woman. According to promotional materials, McCall was exonerated for any wrong-doing and anyone who tried to besmirch his legend, such as co-author Ed Roy, a former real estate developer, was harassed by law enforcement agents and subject to Grand Jury Investigations. According to the publisher, co-author Roy was arrested provisionally at gunpoint in Vancouver, at the behest of the United States and in lieu of extradition. Roy issued a press release announcing his plans to produce a documentary film on the life of McCall.
