Before the two men meet, George realizes there is something wrong with his marriage and his spouse admits that her ex-lover is back in her life and she wants a divorce. Before anything definite can be arranged Larry Hart enters the picture and changes the lives of everyone he comes in contact with.
George Ambrose has written a complex, frightening gothic-like suspense thriller that will have readers eagerly turning the pages to see what happens next. COINCIDENCE reads like an episode of “THE TWILIGHT ZONE” except that when taken as a whole, each scene seems plausible. With one exception, the characters are everyday people who make this novel greater than the sum of its parts.
