Autorenporträt
I've been writing all my life, and seventeen years ago I found a publisher for my novels. They are suspense novels, and readers tell me they can't put them down. I write novels not only to entertain but to bring a deeper understanding of how the major issues of our time challenge our values. In their pursuit of lofty goals, my protagonists encounter situations that expose their inner conflicts and test their commitments.My books appeal to educated readers of serious fiction and are popular with reading groups. They all have book discussion guides that include an introduction, a conversation with the author, and questions for discussion.My first career was in journalism with the Wall Street Journal, after which I served in the army during the Vietnam War. Then I joined an international bank and worked overseas, initially as an economic and political analyst, applying skills I learned in journalism and the military. My years of living, working, and traveling in foreign countries have given me settings for my novels (Buenos Aires, Madrid, London, Santo Domingo, and other places).
