What if you had the power to make anything you said in rhyme come true? And were summoned before the Senate Subcommittee on Patriotic Inactivity to defend why you haven't done more to aid Homeland Security in their efforts? Especially in light of 9/11?The Rainbow in the Room immerses its audience in the lives of three characters during a two-day Senate hearing in which Adam Montgomery, the self-confessed rhymer, is the star witness. He explains the history of this unique talent to the subcommittee, as well as the moral code by which his ability is bound, while simultaneously sparring with the subcommittee's single-minded chairman, Senator Charles Wright, who lost the nine-month pregnant love of his life in the South Tower on 9/11-and is willing to bend any laws at his disposal to undo her fate.Meanwhile, Diana White, one of the most sought-after beauties in Washington, sits in the audience at the proceedings. She lost her estranged four-star general father, Lawrence White, at the Pentagon that same September-destined to never again see the only man in DC whose attention she failed to receive but still craves. As Adam's self-appointed judge, jury, and executioner, this modern-day Mata Hari with a psychotic chip on her shoulder will decide for herself whether the rhymer is the world's friend or foe and-if foe-what strategy for his assassination would make her father finally, albeit posthumously, proud of her.Fantasy meets reality with Adam Montgomery: as magical and rare as a unicorn, yet tied to the real world at a time in our collective history when accountability was the priority of the day, especially for him, the one man who did what no one else could-sacrifice his anonymity and privacy to help us out in spite of the risks and limitations.
About the Author: Vince Nolan has made a career out of technical writing, proofreading, and copy editing to keep his natural ability honed for his life's ambition: To write something uniquely entertaining and meaningful for fantasy/magical realism readers. A die-hard fan of good-hearted, supernatural fantasy, Vince has created his own magical character, Adam Montgomery, who just happens to have the power to make anything he says in rhyme come true. Adam's story is told in Vince's first novel, The Rainbow in the Room, available in hard copy via Amazon as well as electronically through Amazon Kindle. Vince's style of writing is professional, yet casual, and his main objective is to create a gallery of magical characters that entertain as well as speak to some of life's concerns, including surviving-and succeeding-in a world where someone's uniqueness and individual style can be embraced and accepted. This writer doesn't create fantasy worlds on far-removed planets populated by characters that all have supernatural abilities: He believes that using real-world settings and present-day concerns make his magical characters truly stand out as well as make their personalized magic a thing of awe and wonder in a world that has grown up, disbelieving in witches, ghosts, and the wonders of the unknown. In his spare time, of which there is usually little, Vince enjoys reading classic authors, such as Thorne Smith and Ian Fleming, learning from the masters in their genres, and hoping to achieve his own success with his unique style and voice. He firmly believes that every day presents new opportunities, challenges, and surprises-and he looks forward to every one of them.
