George A. Bernstein, author of Suspense Novels
Trapped, A novel of Parapsycological Suspense - an E-Book


TRAPPED

    JACKEE MAREN awakens after minor reconstructive surgery to discover she has become a physical vegetable?  Nothing works except her eyes and eyelids, but her mind is still sharp.  She is trapped in a motionless Hell, called “Locked-in Syndrome,” struggling to survive in a suddenly dangerous world.
Jackee’s only tethers to sanity are the love of her two young sons, and FRANKIE, a gnarled ex-boxer turned physical therapist.
   Hired by her husband, PHIL, Frankie becomes her Paladin, teaching her to “talk” by blinking her eyes. Her huge trust funds will pay for her care.
    Locked in her head, Jackee slowly becomes aware of latent telepathic abilities, learning to listen to others’ minds. After Phil callously moves his gorgeous mistress, RHONDA, into their home, Jackee is horrified to discover he arranged her anesthetic accident, attempting to kill her for her trust funds.
   Helpless and frustrated, Jackee struggles against seemingly impossible odds, first just to survive and then as she develops her strange new gift, to seek revenge against her callous husband. She begins orchestrating a psychic plan to bring Phil down, but she must hurry. The mental effort is killing her.
    Can she finally extract retribution on arrogant Phil, with less than a year to live?

   George Bernstein is a youthful seventy-three year-old man with a B.A. from Northwestern University, now living in south Florida, and the retired president of a publicly held Chicago company.  He is also a “World Class” fly fisherman, having held 12 International Gamefish Association World Records and has recently published Toothy Critters Love Flies (http://www.toothycrittersloveflies.com/), the definitive book on fly-fishing for northern pike and musky.  
    However, George's main interest is to be a serious novelist. He has attended numerous writers’ conferences and seminars, including that of famous fiction agent, Donald Maass, and he has work with independent editor, Dave King, all with the goal of improving his craft.     Trapped, now available as an Ebook, is one of four Suspense novels he has completed.  Editors and independent readers have universally praised his work, most admitting they had a hard time putting the manuscript down.
    Like most unpublished authors, George has faced repeated rejection out of hand by agents with what seems to be little consideration for the work.  Most literary agents lust for that new, “hot” talent, but are so busy with their current author lists, they rarely have time to really evaluate new material…often to their later chagrin. Just ask those who turned down John Gresham, Dr. Suess, and other best sellers.
    This web site is created to showcase George Bernstein’s talent as an author of riveting suspense. Trapped is the first of his novels to be published as an Ebook. Hopefully we will make you a fan, eager to read future works we intend to publish. Feel free to contact the author at: SuspenseGuy@aol.com.
