LABOR DAY is a story about a man in his late sixties whose pent up and unresolved anger is unleashed, resulting in a fatal blow to his wife. Arthur Swain is clueless as to how he has messed up his middle-class family’s life over the years, but he will certainly find out. When he purposely back hands his wife Eleanor she falls against the brass fireplace rail. When he feels for a pulse there is none. Now he must do something, but what? Suddenly, Arthur has placed himself in a position where he must call someone for help and his grown children must be notified, but he is frozen in time. Then his mind takes over. He must protect himself above all.Follow Arthur Swain as he takes action in an attempt to figure out what to do with Eleanor. As he moves through this fast paced story he clearly makes it up as he goes along. He plays a losing psychological game with himself and others. We know he will be trapped. Or will he? It is just a matter of time. Arthur leaves a trail of lies and evidence behind as each new character enters and unwittingly becomes an integral part of his story. We watch him closely in his attempts to cover up what he has done. As his children re-enter his life we learn what his attitude toward them has been and how even that changes because their mother is missing. Arthur’s story to all who listen is that his wife disappeared and he expects to find her.Interesting and multi-dimensional characters jump from the pages weaving in and out of Pinkham’s quilt as Swain’s cover up story spreads involving the lives of others. This short story of suspense moves quickly from the very beginning to a fascinating conclusion. Pinkham puts you in the room and takes you for an edgy ride. A fast and enjoyable read from the git-go.
