Having graduated high school in Norfolk, Virginia, I went south to drink for UNC-WIlmington, where I majored in criminal justice. After finishing there, I stumbled up the interstate to Chapel Hill and convinced them to give me a law degree.  Although I initially intended to drink for the government, I wound up in the private sector, where I remain.  I live in Alamance County, NC with my wife and three children. My first novel, "Trigger Finger," is available for Kindle and any device equipped with the free Kindle app.
