As the first book in the âJack Madsonâ trilogy of crime fiction authored by Ron Felber, A Man of Indeterminate Value is our first introduction to ex-cop John âJackâ Madson, disgraced Wall Street take-over artist and existential pilgrim. While on a personal mission to escape his demons after a treacherous divorce and failed suicide scam that leaves him the "most wanted" man in the Garden State (NJ), Madson takes on corporate forces hell-bent on his destruction as they seek to IPO game-changing bio-medical technology worth hundreds of billions of dollars to Wall Street. Jack Madson could never have foreseen the plunge into the lurid world of international espionage, blackmail, and murder his life would take during this non-stop roller-coaster ride through the darkest corridors of the American dream.
Ron Felber is a graduate of Georgetown University and Loyola University Chicago, where he earned his masterâs degree. After graduation, he worked as a deputy sheriff, transporting federal criminals. His writing career began with articles for True Detective magazine and his latest title, Mob Doctor , was the basis for the FOX Television series of the same name. Mr. Felber lives in Mendham, NJ.
A Man of Indeterminate Value sketches the moral depravity that festers amid high-stakes corporate power games. Jack Madson, an anti-hero for the 21 st century, shows just what it takes to navigate these treacherous shoals, where dirty dealing and incredible violence can rip apart the weak and unwary. Above all, Jack Madson knows how to survive.â
