Picking up from where Hack: Innings 4-6 left off, with Hack fighting for his life, he’s forced to confront the ugly demons of his past. Can the foul-mouthed manager teach Truck a valuable lesson on a national stage?
The roller-coaster ride continues as events build toward the most shocking conclusion of the series yet. See how the Hoplite Magpies deal with the most adversity that they’ve ever faced, with deep-seated issues that threaten to tear the team apart all the way to the nail-biting finish.
Where do I start? Born and raised in St. Louis, graduated from Dartmouth in 2005 and the University of Virginia School of Law in 2008. Practiced law until 2011, when I quit to pursue my dream of writing.
I caught on as the St. Louis Rams Reporter for insideSTL.com and did some radio work for 590 AM the Fan KFNS and 1380 AM the Fan 2. As soon as the (very trying for anyone following the Rams) 2011 NFL season ended, I started working on my novels. The insideSTL gig ended in June, and I focused all of my attention on starting up a small publisher (Orion's Comet).
Other interesting stuff about me: I've forgotten how to ride a bike. I once swam so much over the course of a summer that my hair became green. I'm always fighting a three-pronged war between a paleo lifestyle and my love of wine and ice cream. And my dog, Sully, looks like a big shih tzu--he's 33 pounds.
