Kurzbiographie
The only television or books that interested me, as a child, were mysteries and legal thrillers. I have read many books in both of these genre's, and like many beginning authors, felt I could write the next great American novel. So, after working 9 years in Workers' Compensation law and 4 years of teaching math, I decided to begin my career in writing. I didn't want to write the generic legal thriller, but wanted to introduce different areas of the law that are rarely written about. I turned my passion for the law and writing into the legal thriller series,the Croker Diaries series; Croker Diaries: Justice Be Mine and Croker Diaries: Educating Justice. 

Currently, I am in the process of my third book, which breaks away from the traditional legal thriller into what I would categorize as psych/legal thriller.

In 1978, a boy travels eight years into the future and has an adventure with an intelligent, wisecracking alien ship.
Rated PG for mild language and mildly intense scenes mostly in beginning of film

An alien abduction drops a boy off eight years in the future.

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you: the only Hollywood screenwriters who have heard about physics! Maybe I just like it because of nostalgia. (I watched this movie a lot when I was a kid.) It's a really unique premise, though, and they manage not to mess it up.

My review of this book is a little bias, as I am the author. However, I know those of you who do read this book will enjoy it as much as I did writing it. I try to breakaway from the traditional, generic legal thriller. I like to bring in areas of the law many people do not know about and make them part of a thrilling reading adventure. Enjoy!
