It's an interesting article, except that I don't know if people are really losing that much interest as that gold is moving higher over inflationary concerns about the higher cost of energy...

I also wrote RANSOM NOTE, although somewhat later, a very dark comedy since it exposes the soft underbelly of human awkwardness in moments of desperation, which I find comical in a way...

Here's the inside jacket synopsis:

Ransom Note is a story of how parental love and criminal desperation come face to face. Young Billy Halyard and his two friends are new members of an outlaw gang. The three kidnap a child for ransom. They believe they have the child of a wealthy family, but they mistakenly take the child of a low-income working family. When they learn of their mix-up, Billy insists it's a trick to make them give up the child without ransom. Upon learning of the kidnapping, the gang leader becomes outraged. Now, Billy is not only in trouble with the law, but he's also in dangerous trouble with the gang. His nifty plan for easy money quickly begins to unravel, and the already tense situation becomes even more desperate.

Thanks, have a pleasant and safe Thanksgiving...
