Former Government Consultant Reinvents Himself And Becomes Award-winning Author
Asheville, NC, February 24, 2012 - Former Latin American government consultant and prolific author, David Pereda, has released his mainstream novel However Long the Night, published by Eternal Press. Winner of the Lighthouse Book Award for fiction and the Royal Palm Award for fiction, However Long the Night is a romantic tale with a major dose of suspense, a tense love triangle, buried family secrets, corporate shenanigans and a historical background.
The main character, Cid Milan, is a successful award-winning Miami Architect and real estate developer who suddenly finds out that his success has been built on lies told by his dying father twenty-five years ago that have done irreparable damage to the lives of people once dear to him. His dilemma is: what should he do? So he does the elegant thing to do: he returns to the land he abandoned in search of the woman he left behind and the son he never knew. In the process, he learns an invaluable lesson about love, forgiveness and redemption.
"The work is indeed a masterpiece of entertainment…” — Gary Sorkin, Pacific Book Review
"The suspense grabs the reader from the beginning and holds it to the end…If you like a good romantic mystery, you will enjoy this book." —Readers Favorite
“David Pereda has done it again… ” — The Laurel of Asheville
David Pereda enjoys writing thrillers and mainstream novels. Before devoting his time solely to writing and teaching, David had a successful international career with Booz-Allen and Hamilton, where he worked with the governments of Mexico, Venezuela, Peru and Qatar. “What I learned then,” says David, “has helped me enrich my novels with exotic places and distinctive characters.”
A member of MENSA, David is the regional director of Florida Writers Association's Western North Carolina division and the founder of AWE (Asheville Writing Enthusiasts). He lives with his family in Asheville, North Carolina, and teaches creative writing and ESL at the A-B Tech Community College.
