Synopsis

In the opening paragraphs, Ted lies in prison musing about the events that led him. A law-abiding citizen, to commit the crimes that had resulted in his imprisonment in this '--damned zoo.' He is tortured with doubts about the girl for whose sake he had committed the crimes. The Rainbow's Hand is an account of the amazing events which preceded this scene, and the final fate of Ted and the woman he loves. The story is set in Southern California and Baja California and tells of the planning and perpetuation of his crimes, and his frantic attempts to escape capture. Whether he is a fool or a fighter for justice; whether he is Romeo, Don Quixote, or an Arthurian knight, or, like most of us, a combination of all of the above; and whether the woman for whom he has sacrificed so much is a cold, calculating, murderess or a woman who has loved, 'not wisely, but too well;' are some of the questions dealt with in this gripping tale.

Biographie de l'auteur

After serving in the Navy, Thomas G. Robinson worked at many odd jobs including 13 years as an electronics technician for the police department of the City of San Diego. During those years he studied English literature and composition at San Diego State University. After earning his teaching credentials and a degree in English, he obtained a job as a high school English teacher, finally retiring after 26 years. He has been a life-long reader who believes that reading good books is not only one of life's greatest pleasures, but is also essential to the care and feeding of the mind. He is convinced that there are many kinds of good books, fiction and non-fiction; but a good well written yarn, with an original plot, filled with love, adventure, suspense, and well developed characters, deserves an important place in the catalogue of 'good books.'In addition to The Rainbow's Hand, Mr. Robinson has written a number of poems and short stories. He is currently working on a novel about high school and is doing research for a book about The Great Depression.
