When Treachery Backfires, Lives and Love are Lost; New Book Released

Murray Fincher’s Backfire is as chilling as it is electrifying, a novel of greed, kidnapping, love and redemption.

New Orleans, Louisiana (PRWEB) March 26, 2006 -- When Anne McLendon, a beautiful and intelligent single mother, is swept off her feet by David Kaston, pegged as the wunderkind of a high-tech company, what could go wrong? For starters, corporate espionage, an attempt to kidnap and kill Anne’s child, and the looming possibility of an al-Qaeda connection.

Corporate V.P. David Kaston, recovering from the loss of his wife and child, is a young executive with a bright and profitable future. Gathering his courage, he informs Anne that he wants her and her daughter to be part of that future. His company is about to unveil a chip that is faster than anything on the market and security is firmly in place. Enter: Charles James Bartlett, III, a.k.a. Charley Three, who has been so humiliated by his inadequacies and demotions that he schemes to take control of the chip and cut the upstart Kaston out of the picture for good. The plan is simple: seduction, kidnapping, murder, revenge. Throw in the specter of international terrorism and the plot builds to a point of near explosion.

In Backfire, Fincher weaves a story that keeps the reader riveted to each word. One scene builds upon the next, the tension culminating with two children missing and heartless killers on their trail. This is more than a compelling and fascinating novel; it’s a book that has to be read from cover to cover…in one sitting.
