Final
Notice
by Van
Fleisher
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Thriller/Political Satire
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
The
year is the very near future. A
brilliant young doctor and mathematician, Vijay Patel, has invented a new
health/sport watch that monitors blood chemistry so accurately, it can actually
predict when someone will die – within 10, 20, or 30 days. The intention of this “Final Notice,” as it
is called, is to allow people to get their affairs in order and reach out to
loved ones before it’s too late. But
when those notified have easy access to a gun, the result is sometimes lethal
for more than just the watch-owner.
These
are the stories of several people who receive their Final Notice and their very
different reactions ... including a desire to get revenge with impunity. They range from an 89-year-old resident in a
retirement home to a U.S. Senator...from a benevolent widow to a crass tycoon
to a noted climate change scientist.
But
in this fresh, fast-paced page-turner, their stories are all set against the
all-too-recognizable backdrop of a guns-gone-wild America, and the relentless
push by the NRA and their surrogate politicians to make guns even easier to
acquire.
There
is plenty of dark humor and political satire in FINAL NOTICE, as well as
touching scenes and outright suspense.
So expect to laugh out loud, dry some tears, and bite your nails (not
necessarily in that order).

EXCERPT TWO:
And
sure enough, in 1.24 seconds, Trudi had 1,620,000 results. “Here it is.
California law protects us if we shoot a burglar in our home. Still, it
wouldn’t help if we didn’t hear them until they burst into the room. I can’t
see either one of us having the presence of mind to reach for the gun, roll out
of bed and blast away. What are you smiling at?”
“At
the image of you doing just that!”
“Hey.
I’ve been watching Angelina Jolie and I think I can manage the moves.”

AUTHOR BIO:
“After
21 years with an airline, and 30 years in management consulting, I retired and
found that my phone didn’t ring and the only emails I got were asking for
money. So, since I was at my computer, I decided to write a novel.”
This
is only half the story. (Van is notoriously modest.) The
author was Director of International Marketing with TWA, and an International
Management Consultant – taking him behind the closed doors of boardrooms and
executive offices around the world. He knows how business works, which gives
the slightly “sci-fi” premise of Final Notice a realistic feel. Moreover, his
two careers led him to live abroad for much of his life. After growing up in
New Jersey and Florida, where he never thought much further than the length of
a football field, and going to college in New Mexico, he wound up living in
England, Scotland and France, travelling frequently to the Middle East and
Asia. He even spent a year living in India. And his first-hand experience with
– and respect for – other cultures is apparent in this book.
“Final
Notice is meant to highlight, my concerns with America’s handling of three
important issues: gun control (not anti-gun), ageism and the importance of
immigration. The book won’t fix these issues, but there are a number of great
organizations with even greater people working on our behalf to right these
wrongs. Proceeds from sales of Final Notice will help support those efforts.”
