Member Since
April 2021


Ken Harris spent thirty-two years with the FBI before retiring as a cybersecurity executive and turning his attention to crime fiction. His From the Case Files of Steve Rockfish series combines old-school detective grit with sharp humor and modern edge, shaped by decades of real-world experience. A New Jersey native now living on Virginia’s Northern Neck, Ken shares life with his wife, Nicolita, and their two Labradors, Shady and Chalupa Batman. When he’s not writing, he’s likely playing Walkabout Mini Golf, cheering on Philly sports, or enjoying a Montecristo cigar with a pour of Irish whiskey—soundtracked by Tool.

The lore has been around for a couple hundred years and those stories were used to scare the heck out of me a summer camper in those same woods. The story could be about the folklore, or maybe that a criminal group is using the legend to hid, or keep people away, from where they're doing business. (less)
