A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

A graduate of the University of North Carolina and Duke Law School, James Garrison practiced law as an in-house attorney with Texaco Inc. and its joint ventures until he was paid to go away in a corporate merger. Despite his wife's expectation (and hope) that he would continue his legal career, he stayed home for the kids-in case they called from wherever they were-and decided to return to his first loves: literature and creative writing. After much study and research, he began work on his first novel, QL 4, based on his experiences as a military policeman in Vietnam, where he had ended up when he was drafted during his first year in law school. Set in the Mekong Delta in 1970, QL 4 is a tale of intrigue, betrayal, and crime among soldiers on the same side in an unpopular war. The title comes from the colonial highway that the American soldiers followed-in the footsteps of the French soldiers before them-south from Saigon into the Mekong Delta. QL 4 has won awards for literary and military fiction, and it was a finalist for the 2018 Montaigne Medal. His short stories and poems have appeared in literary magazines and anthologies. His poem "Lost: On the Staten Island Ferry" was nominated for a 2018 Pushcart prize. His second novel, The Safecracker, was released by TouchPoint Press in September 2019. The Safecracker is a somewhat tongue-in-cheek legal thriller, which sometimes slips in a little humor or a subtle (or maybe not so subtle) parody of traditional genre fiction, including the John Grisham type. Lawyers named McFee and Sharp. A villain called Fisheye. A safecracker who tries to steal a safe from a fast food restaurant rather than just open it and take the money. And the safe is encased in a block of concrete. Then there's a wrongful death lawsuit on behalf of a dog named Princess.James Garrison has a webpage at https: //jamesgarrison-author.com,
