DILLON

By Bud Turner

Friendship, loyalty, compassion, greed, rape, and, murder: the makings of Dillon. This is a twenty-year history of a small town, Dillon, Colorado, a large corporation, Dillon Inc., and the man who owns them both, Mr. William Dillon. A prospering town, a thriving corporation, and a man who leaves nothing to chance, the three all but inseparable from one another. And this is the story of Mr. Dillon's four grandchildren. Twin grandsons, William and Walter James, who appear willing to do whatever it takes to be the one to inherit all of Dillon. Mr. Dillon's only granddaughter, Miss Ann, who, despite her outward sweetness, also appears willing to do whatever it takes to achieve her goal. And Christopher Helix, Mr. Dillon's gay grandson, an individual who always tries to do what is right, but due to his sexual orientation, expects nothing from his grandfather. Finally, this is the story of Max Sands, a small blue-eyed boy, the son of one of Mr. Dillon's employees. This book was researched and written by Bug Turner, investigative reporter for the New York Times and the Dillon Gazette, a boyhood friend of Max.
