Leech Mob Novel - The Abandoned House Interview

Set in 1990, behind the facade of New England propriety, Kelly, a newcomer to the area, becomes a victim of bullying and assault on his first day at school. Each of the novel’s chapters deals with a social issue as pertinent today as it was twenty years ago. Kelly is seamlessly drawn into a world of absent fathers, drugs, vandalism, promiscuity, police profiling, date rape, stealing, and ultimately mental illness that lands him behind locked doors at State Hospital.
Though some of the Leech Mob characters are likable while some are not, each one is uniquely developed with depth and clarity. Once idealizing the secret and concealed world of unacceptable behaviors that rebellious teens embrace, the Leech Mob finally discovers that their gang is not worth the tragedy that it has perpetuated.
Hard-hitting yet humorous and insightful, this book is a must-read for teens as well as for parents and teachers. High school is the basis for Leech Mob, taking artistic license to the limit with the wild parties, the high school pranks, the underground music scene, brushes with the law and of course, the brawls! I wanted to write a book that the young people would have fun reading. So I decided to start with the important issue of growing up - with a bunch of crazy and often painful stories inspired by my teenage years written into a fictionalized text. The end result was Leech Mob: A Novel about a Connecticut Gang. Hopefully, the youth will benefit from the experiences of Kelly Hayes!
