A Daughter's Rage

by Ronald Gordon

Sixteen-year-old Penny can't rest in peace. She has come back to set the record straight. Aside from her personal vendettas and the love of her homosexual son, this multitasking kid has shocking paranormal news and an alarming homicidal request for 50-year-old maintenance man, Ronald Jackson. "Why me?" the behemoth of a man asks himself. He isn't willing to get on board, nor is he mentally prepared to deal with the rage of the murdered teenager. Ronald is caught completely off guard by the secretly kept love his pint-size, younger co-worker Pradine has for him. She soon has him swept off his feet, much to Penny's jealous objection. The two vie for his attention and fireworks ensue while surprise after surprise flavors their dangerous journey. Will either make it out alive? Will Ron fulfill his destiny?

I opened this book expecting great things but the first page and the following ones had me feeling as if I were a stranger stuck in a group of like minded people speaking a language I not only didn't understand but I hadn't been introduced to characters. I appeared to behind the eight ball for most of the beginning chapters and seemed to be trying to play catch up. The names of some of the characters had me smiling for most of the book, John, Don, Vohn, Ron and Larry Curly and Moe. After persevering I was finally rewarded, the story changed in perspective, the characters became alive and the story finally made sense to me and what a tale. It went from a 2/5 story to a 4/5 one, well worth reading, I thoroughly enjoyed the tale. Thank you Mr Gordon :-)

A Great Paranormal Read

This is a remarkable story. Imagine, protagonist, Ronald Jackson, being approached by the antagonist, Penny, a deceased teen who wants him to kill her parents. What would you do? With so many intriguing, dysfunctional and vile characters, the author takes us on a roller coaster ride, where you get drawn into the supernatural world teeming with true friendship, murder, love, hate, betrayal, abuse, envy, revenge and redemption. As the plot progresses, you begin to see why Penny has chosen Ronald to carry out her demands, but if you think you know what happens next, reconsider, because the author throws a curveball, with an explosive ending that you will never see coming. Even though the issues exposed in the book are tragic, the author manages to add some humor, passion and romance to the story. Congratulations, Ronald Gordon, for writing such a gripping tale that focuses on unimaginable acts that are universal. I am certainly looking forward to reading this gifted author’s next work.
