Empire is a fast paced thriller, set in rural Kansas, the mountains of Pakistan, and inside the Beltway; a horrifying account of a terrorist attack on a typical heartland town.
I grew up in Chicago, and attended Proviso West High School and Western Illinois University, with a major in Political Science and a minor in English.
After graduation, I went to work in government, eventually gravitating to law enforcement. I graduated from the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center with honors, and had a 23 year career, working in Chicago, Denver, and Phoenix. I retired in February, 2002.
My wife and I reside with our dog, Ursa on the Oregon coast.
