Overview: NOT EVERY SUPERHERO FITS THE MOLD
She’s ultra-curvy…and virtually invisible.
She’s fiercely protective…and utterly nonviolent.
She has the manners of nobility, the book smarts of a scholar…and the street smarts of pulverized roadkill.
…
Sure. Go Ahead.
Mold her into a superhero.
THE SYLVER PLATTER
An Anti-Hero for the Rest of Us
For twenty-four years, Sylvia Platt led a sheltered, genteel, and highly educated life. That she gave little consideration to superheroes was of no consequence. They were nothing more than the fictitious constructs of blockbuster scriptwriters and comic book creators; they were the spandex-clad, cellulite-free fantasies of countless adolescents. Plainly put, superheroes did not exist. Even if they did, they would be nothing like her.
Raised on a steady diet of modesty and propriety, bookish, plus-sized Sylvia knew exactly what she wanted from life, and she had a plan to make it happen, hand in paw with her cheese-obsessed genius dog. That future veered off course the day Sylvia’s bullet-riddled body refused to die. Violent crime had come to the quiet island of Chaucer’s Gray; it had come most determinedly to the young Ms. Platt. Against all scientific reason, she survived, stronger, more powerful than ever. Urged by her friends to put this twist of fate to good deeds–to stop crime, to save lives, to rescue kittens in trees and maybe, under the most absurd of circumstances, her future husband–reluctant Sylvia faced some difficult questions. How does a woman with no knowledge of fighting techniques nor any inclination to maim, fend off an attacker? During which portion of a rampage is polite discourse a reasonable option? Would her mother, seated upon the throne of her etiquette empire, suffer a fatal stroke if she learned her own progeny had roamed the city streets concealed only by shiny underwear and a cape? Do please and thank you carry any weight at all with a strangler, that is, if one can muster enough air to utter such pleasantries? Convinced her undeniably eccentric friends have seen too many movies, Sylvia resists until one uniquely communicative canine convinces her to try.
As the island residents are kept on tenterhooks by a wave of devastating murders, transforming an ultra-curvy, compulsively courteous pacifist into a lifesaving legend proves to be no small endeavor for Celia St. Paul and Rudyard Wallen, but Sylvia’s best pals have never been ordinary friends.
