Donald E. Pearse Sr., the author of "FATAL PLUNGES", is an octogenarian writing his first novel. He was inspired when he attended Creative Writing classes at a local Senior Center. One of his optional homework assignments was to create a fictional character. He created an Irish orphan boy, and as he continued to write about the boy's adventures, he morphed into that boy. Eventually the story grew into a full length novel. "FATAL PLUNGES" Is packed with mystery, adventure, and romance from start to finish. Pat, an Irish boy who grew up in a Manhattan orphanage, had frequent nightmares of tumbling into the ocean from a very high cliff in a fatal plunge. He ran away at the age of sixteen, joined the military, and fought in WWI. After the war, he went to Ireland to search for his ancestry. One day he stumbled upon the ruins of a castle previously owned by his father, who died in a fatal plunge decades earlier. He labored to solve the mystery of how his father died and how to end the horrible recurring nightmares. Pat discovered a gang of whiskey thieves and was engaged in a shoot-with them. He also had conflicts with a crooked town constable and his son. Pat and Shay had two sons and two daughters. One day Pat visited the orphanage where he was raised and discovered a son he never knew about. The castle was attacked by remnants of the local militia Pat dismantled years earlier. Fires erupted and lives were lost. Pat and Shay's three sons endured multiple misadventures while growing up, including a kidnapping and discovery of sacks of stolen money in cave filling with tidal waters at the bottom of a seaside cliff. The three sons all became fighter pilots and were downed over France during WWII. They faced almost insurmountable challenges as they endeavored to elude German soldiers. Pat and Shay's sons each endured numerous trials and tribulations in their romantic endeavors. It almost seemed a peaceful existence might never be attained by the family living in the restored castle. --------------------------------------------------------- If you enjoy reading this novel, be on the lookout for a soon to be published second novel by Mr. Pearse, entitled, "A GRAVESIDE PROMISE". This novel takes place deep in a South American jungle. Adventures, romances, and mysteries galore as the characters attempt to explore ancient archaeological sites.

 

作者簡介

Donald E. Pearse Sr. did not complete his first novel, "FATAL PLUNGES", until after he became an octogenarian. He served in the U.S. Army in Germany, after which he attended a local university for eight years while working full-time in a steel foundry for five years, and later as a testing engineer for an electrical and pneumatic panel manufacturer. He graduated with a BEEE degree and joined a major communications manufacturing firm. While there he obtained a MA degree, and wrote numerous detailed manufacturing instructions. He also created and wrote major sections of a direly needed, very detailed new procedural instruction manual for introducing design changes for use by multiple design organizations, along with manufacturing, and field installation groups. He retired as a Technical Manager with over 30 years of service. He did not begin formal writing until he attended Creative Writing sessions at a local Senior Center. Since then, he has had numerous articles and photographs published. However, he did not begin writing a novel until Joan, his Creative Writing instructor, who years later became his wife, challenged him to create a fictional character. As he wrote about an Irish orphan boy, he morphed into his character, and that homework assignment grew into this exciting novel entitled, "FATAL PLUNGES" He enjoyed writing "FATAL PLUNGES" so much, he began working on a second novel, entitled "A GRAVESIDE PROMISE", which is scheduled for publication shortly after "FATAL PLUNGES" is released. It is an exciting story about romances, mysteries, and adventures deep within a South American jungle. He is currently contemplating a compilation of short stories he has written, and possibly a sci-fi novel. God for has indeed blessed him with the inspiration and talent to write these novels.
