Free Excerpt From The Book (requires Adobe Acrobat Reader) Imagine walking through a casino where you’re been many times before. It’s a place where you meet your boss, who happens to like gambling too much. Suddenly bullets start flying everywhere! You crash to the floor as glass shatters all around, shards pelting your body. You’re terrified you might not live a moment longer.But then suppose you are mistaken for one of the shooters, and arrested for robbery! Branded as a criminal everything you say becomes implicitly regarded as bogus. Because of the seriousness of the charges against you your company insists upon an indefinite separation, removing you from your professional identity as a high level corporate executive. Such is the fate of the principle protagonist of Identity Theft. Already three kinds of crisis have shattered his man’s legitimacy and confidence, the fear of dying at any moment, the fear of sudden and precipitous loss of credibility, and the fear and shame of complete helplessness, unable to fight back without further compromising his already precarious position. Identity Theft expresses the view that it could happen to any one of us at any time. Each person’s identity has many complicated parts – what we are to the ones we love, to the children we nurture, whether they make us feel like good parents, how work satisfies our desire for accomplishment, how much money have we’ve got invested, how fulfilling has our life proven to be, how we feel about ourselves when we’re alone. Shatter the structure of that very complicated special entity and life has thrown us outside of ourselves. It’s called Identity Theft and it comes in many forms. Drake Wentworth must find a way to resurrect his reputation as an extremely talented and reliable person. But that means to rebuild something already achieved. He hasn’t the slightest idea of how to proceed. He’s always had it. How can he recreate something perhaps forever lost? Enter the most unlikely woman one could imagine to connect to this ex-corporate scion – Rebecca, a politically radical firebrand who gets herself arrested on purpose on behalf of the dispossessed, the homeless – the environment in which she’s grown up. They meet as both are released from jail. Is it possible that she could include among her clients one who symbolizes everything she hates? How could these two humans possibly attract each other? Such are the unlikely imponderables of this gripping story of intrigue, terror and love.
