About this title

Synopsis

This fast-paced thriller finds former Deputy Chief of Staff Peter Farrell once again serving at the pleasure of the President of the United States of America. Believing his trip to San Francisco a fool's errand, he is surprised to encounter the Englishman: the puppet-master behind the CIR who had cruelly toyed with his and Sara's lives back in New York. Incredibly, the president orders him to work with the CIR to unravel an ancient code before hostility with China escalates into World War III. Among those who join Peter's mission is covert operative Sebastian Pope, a killer struggling with his own past and with his own motives to prevent THE FALL OF ST.SEBASTIAN.

About the Author

I am basically a product of my Twin Cities upbringing, a Catholic kid growing up in the Midwest. As a child, my father, a Navy veteran, regaled me with stories of an exciting and colorful world beyond the borders of our home state of Minnesota. At home, my mother's penchant for reading all genres let me visit these far away ports of call from my father's tales. As a young reader, I devoured the likes of Leon Uris, James Michener, John Steinbeck, Gore Vidal, Robert Ludlum, and I could not keep my head out of the World Book Encyclopedia.

After Benilde-St. Margaret's High School, I left the comfort of home for a Jesuit education at Saint Louis University, in St. Louis, Missouri. Graduating cum laude with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and French, I returned to Saint Louis University for my law degree. My undergraduate and graduate education also included frequent trips abroad (including studying for a year at Universite d'Orleans, in Orleans, France) where I carried Robert Ludlum paperbacks in my backpack and let my imagination run wild through the great cities of Europe.

After law school, I returned home to the Twin Cities to practice law. Although my legal career has spanned the gamut from a clerk on the Missouri Court of Appeals to a trial lawyer licensed in Minnesota, Iowa, and Wisconsin, my practice focuses on mostly on eminent domain law--representing people who have had their property taken from them by the government. Although I travel extensively (which is where I do most of my writing), I prefer the simple pleasures of life in Minneapolis watching my three children play soccer.
