Biography
I'm from Chicago. I love its people and its inspiring, flamboyant, and often violent history. Sandburg called it "City of the Big Shoulders," a working man's town. Nelson Algren wrote: "It's always been an artist's town and it's always been a torpedo's town...."
My stories take place in this Windy City. The latest is THE DUMMY CASE, the next Joe Ganzer mystery due out in mid-May 2018. My previous novel RETURN OF THE FALCON is a 1946 mystery/thriller roller coaster that takes the reader from Chicago to London and ends dramatically in Montréal.
In non-fiction, I had great fun writing THE MASQUE OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE about the identity of the Bard and came to a startling conclusion.
I'm currently working on a prequel to RETURN OF THE FALCON, which follows Joe Ganzer in his exploits during World War II as an OSS Intelligence Agent.
