Interview with Shocking Texas True Story author Sydney Newman Dotson about soon to be released new book NO GREATER DECEPTION

Our forensic document expert warned us several times that our lives were in danger. We knew it but couldnt let that stop us. Our goal was to find our fathers real Will and do what we felt our father would want us to do.

Im sure everyone that reads your book will want to know why you are one of the main characters in your book. Is this a true story about your own personal experience? Or is there another reason why youre one of the main characters in your book?

"Good questions. Yes, NO GREATER DECEPTION is a true story about my personal experience. I changed some names to protect the innocent and the guilty. Even though some of the names of the cities have been changed, they are still in the same vicinity where the real action took place. Readers will enjoy trying to figure out the real names of the characters and cities."

"NO GREATER DECEPTION is a non-fiction book that can be classified as an action/adventure, mystery/thriller and autobiography/biography. There are numerous crimes and hints of other crimes mentioned throughout the book, so I often describe it as a true crime story. It has dialogue and narrative that youd typically find in a novel in order for the readers to feel involved in the hunt. Crossing all publishing categories is proof that life can be much more fascinating than fiction."

Your father also knew Joe Bonanno?

"Yes he did. I knew Joe Bonanno as Mr. Banana. He visited our home several times, and was a very nice man. He laughed and joked a lot with my brothers and sisters and I. We were so young and naïve that we had no idea what the Mafia was or that he was its leader. The only thing we thought was peculiar was the red telephone that we werent supposed to answer in my fathers bedroom. Id love to know who was on the other end of that line."

I understand your father knew George H.W. Bush too?

"Yes, they met in the Midland-Odessa area in the late 40s and early 50s when they were young trying to get rich in the oil industry. My father said he and George were both dirt poor back then. They helped form several civic organizations together. I find it interesting that both of them moved to the Houston area."

Did you like your stepmother before your father died?

"I got along with her for my fathers sake. My father warned all of us kids about our stepmother and stepbrothers. They had done some terrible things in the past, and he knew what they were capable of. Thats why we felt certain that my father had taken measures to prevent what happened to us after his death. We never fought or had harsh words with my stepmother or stepbrothers until she turned in a Will for my father that left her everything. I haven't talk to her since then, but she approached me a few times during depositions that werent pleasant. Shes a very evil woman."

"Our forensic document expert warned us several times that our lives were in danger. We knew it but couldnt let that stop us. Our goal was to find our fathers real Will and do what we felt our father would want us to do. Ill always believe that Dad was trying to help us. The dreams we had about him during our court case and afterwards are evidence of that. You'll learn about them in the book."

When will NO GREATER DECEPTION be released?

"The book will be available from my publisher on 1stBooks.com in late November. Readers can go to my website and click on my publishers link."

"Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble and Borders Bookstores will have the book in December."

What's next?

Heather and I formed TWO SISTERS PRODUCTIONS, INC. to co-produce a film based on this book. If Ben Affleck and Matt Damon can produce a movie, then two bright women in Texas can too. We've contacted several production companies and actresses who may be interested in playing our roles. Cameron Diaz, Reese Witherspoon, Julia Roberts and Meg Ryan would be ideal. One of them has been contacted."
