Walter Danley is a mystery and suspense author of The Tipping Point: A Wainwright Mystery. It is a highly praised, fast-paced thriller to die for!

The firm, characters, conflicts, conspiracy and murders in the story never happened, but the fraud, sex, and partner greed where significant elements of the multi-billion dollar real estate syndication business of the 70s and 80s. Critics say if you like mystery and suspense with exhilarating thrills, blind curve plot twists, and page-turning action, you’ll love Walter Danley’s novels. . http://www.walterdanley.com

Sometimes, with a scene on my mind or some dialog that I've been bouncing around in my head for awhile, I'll be awake at 1 or 2 AM. The solution to both insomnia and the maverick thought is to go into my office, boot up the computers and write. (less)
