Gender Male
Occupation writer
Location Vancouver, BC, Canada
Introduction I attended UBC, and spent ten years in the Canadian navy with service in destroyers and submarines, subsequently teaching school and practising law. My second novel, Terror on the Alert, is a thriller set in a Canadian submarine during the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962. It was launched in September 2014, and is available in book stores and as an ebook. I’m happy to say there are some great reviews out there!

My first novel is IPPY gold-medal-winning Soldier of the Horse, the story of my father’s time in the WW I Canadian Cavalry Brigade. Please contact me for a signed copy of either or both.
