Surprise Larceny

By S. Furlong-Bolliger

Frank had it all figured out: a few under-the-the table money transfers, a new identity, and a plan to live out his retirement years a self-made man. He would have succeeded too, if it weren’t for an untimely surprise. Instead, he wakes up in a hospital to find that a couple of his coworkers have their own plan.

Surprise Larceny puts a new spin on the old adage--keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.

A short story.

Reviews for Surprise Larceny

[colleenmbratley · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Surprise is probably a mild way to put it. Shock would have most assuredly fit the emotional reaction perceived, but of course as a title and what happened, surprise works much better.Short stories are just that. You won't find a lot of fluff or character building; there just isn't any room for it. That's probably why I don't usually read short stories. I like to get to know the characters and really see, through descriptive writing, where everything is at. So surprisingly, I could actually picture the scene and had just enough of the character's personality to feel and understand the emotions.In reality, I think had the author wanted to, a full novel with quite a few twists and turns could have been developed. That should actually be considered and played with when spare time permits. It could be very interesting.S. Furlong-Bolliger has an ability to create an impact within a very small space. With that insight and talent, I can only imagine what would happen in a full novel. It would be a dynamite, can't put it down kind of book I'm sure.For a short, yet captivating read, this book is for you. As a writer, I have to wonder what else could have happened, and wouldn't it be fun to find out. Enjoy!
