One Bad Apple Inna Wi Backyard — Patrick G. McLean

What could go wrong in a close-knit, religious community, called Queue Ridge, where there had been no serious crime? A day would come when the country folks became overly concerned with random attacks on women travelling at nights on lonely, unlit parochial roads. Before the initial attack, a spiritual woman had warned that danger would have been lurking. Bent on trapping the attacker referred to as ‘The Hooded Night Stalker', the police inspector devised a workable plan. In the interim, the charismatic pastor tried to encourage divine serenity in the shocked community … and, he found himself attracted to a lovely church sister who liked him also. The saying ‘the good guys normally win' proved true, as The Hooded Night Stalker was eventually caught. This action-packed novelette, placed in the early nineteen-fifties, has lyrics in English and in the Caribbean dialect (patois/patwa) and was created to entertain.
