edit data

Daniel J Demers is a lifelong history buff whose fascination with Central Park and its rich heritage inspired this novel. A father of two young adult daughters, Daniel also draws inspiration from their insights and experiences, which help shape his storytelling. With a professional background in banking, he first discovered his passion for writing while exploring his own family’s history, culminating in his debut nonfiction work, Buoyant Passages. That journey sparked the creation of the Jayme Adventure Series, a collection of novels that blends historical intrigue with youthful curiosity. Through these adventures, Daniel hopes to ignite a love of history in young readers and celebrate the hidden stories all around us.
