About

University graduate who travelled, lived and worked in many parts of the world. Ship salvage in southeastern Texas was one of those sojourns.  The book, 'Last Of the Good Guys' is based on those experiences. 

When not travelling I have taught at various colleges throughout Canada.

I live in a small Ontario town with my wife and two children, presently working on two new novels; 'Eat The Dead' and 'Guilty Until Proven Innocent'.

Story Behind The Book

Reviews

I’ve read your stuff and I like it. Keep it up. Keep it up - John Bosford<br /><br />Chapter 14 struck a chord with me.  There was something about it that touched a resonance inside me. I've never been to sea or in a storm.  But I was there that night.  Something special about this author.  - Tom Jenkins<br /><br />It was a fast read, wasted no time on the trivia one sees in so much writing.  Tha characters were unusual and each new one added his/her own personality.  There are some sick people in this book.  Howie Morgan is unforgettable as just such a sicko. - Bill Monahagn<br /><br />If you like a book that just keeps growing as you read.  This is it.  Jonathon Trowes<br />
