SALEM, Mass., Nov. 1, 2002 (PRIMEZONE) -- Excessive wealth, power and influence never fails to lead to evil. Penned by Don E. Finegold, "Interlude" (now available through 1stBooks Library) is a gripping story of people allowing the ends to justify the means -- a classic example of the famous maxim "absolute power corrupts absolutely."
"Interlude" has David Ransom as the principal character, who marries Dora Payson after which his rise to power and wealth begins. David uses both charisma and ruthlessness to accomplish what his heart craves. However, his lavish lifestyle garners him a lot of enemies. Then, an attack is made to wipe him out. This particular stirring scene thoroughly captures the intensity of Finegold's writing skill: "David Ransom fell to the bedroom floor, conscious but bleeding. He dragged himself across the room until he reached the table beside the bed and tugged on the telephone wire...`I've been shot! I'm at 3691 Silver Lace Lane. My name is David Ransom. Help me.'"
Al Murray, a detective, is determined to get to the bottom of things only to find out that he is facing a long list of suspects and all with iron-tight motives. As Murray pursues his investigation, clues direct him into the minds of people who are never satisfied with their own way of life. Will Murray catch the culprit in time?
Overflowing with callousness and cold-blooded machinations, "Interlude" offers a riveting experience for all readers. The story ends with a bombshell.
After nearly 50 years of being an executive in the New England leather industry, Don E. Finegold retired and began a new career of writing novels. He is a graduate of The Oxford School of Business Administration (1948) and the Lowell Technological Institute (1953). Don and his wife Elaine currently reside in Salem, Mass.
