Matthew's Beginning is an intriguing submission of original fiction which focuses on the extraordinary life and harrowing exploits of the main character. The middle of three brothers, Matthew shares their disgust and hatred for their stepfather, Ben Lucas. Routinely assaulting their mother and showing very little love and support for the family, Ben quickly became a figure of both fear and derision. One particular day, Matthew's elder brother Joshua steals money from Ben's wallet and buys a ring. Once he discovers the missing money, Ben threatens violence. Instead of cowering Matthew takes credit for taking the money and suggests Ben beat him instead of his mother. Impressed by Matthew's nerve and guts, Ben forms a new respect for the young man. A few days later, he shares a secret possession as well as a cruel ultimatum which makes a significant impression on Matthew and alters his perspective in many ways. From this foundation, a very entertaining tale is constructed.
