A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Author Eddie R Hughes has written this fictional work as a book for the entire family. He and his wife and two daughters live in Herndon, Virginia. He is President and Co-Owner of DMT (Detection Monitoring Technologies). DMT builds hi-tech radar and sensor systems very much like those in this book. His company also integrates security solutions, and specialty vehicles and boats like the ones in the book as well. DMT's technology is sold around the world -- from Iowa to Norway to the Middle East. This background in techology and world travel finds its way into Eddie's books. Eddie also loves the ocean, fishing, kayaking, SCUBA, and outdoor sports. Eddie can be often found paddling his kayak along the many small islands and coastal zones around the Gulf Coast of Florida. The love of the outdoors and the sea also finds it way into his novels. Eddie has BS degrees in both Physics (Lynchburg College, Virginia) and Mathematics (University of Hawaii). While in Hawaii, he also obtained his Certificate of Completion in the Marine Option Program (MOP), for which he published his first technical paper. He also took up SCUBA, spearfishing, and even tried surfing. So it is not surprising that there is significant effort in making sure the fantastic technology is real and effectively used to enhance the storylines. The outdoor scenes of the tropic climates are vibrant and descriptive. Eddie has other works available and the list of these can be found on the publisher's website at www.deepseapublishing.com.
