Colin Nelson

Award wining author Colin T. Nelson grew up in a small town in Southern Minnesota. He has worked as both a prosecutor and public defender for over 40 years. His books are "page turners" and he wants to teach his readers something new in every story. His latest book is "The Havana Syndrome" which won a BOOK AWARD from Book Fest. It's the fourth book in the Pete Chandler series. In "Up Like Thunder," Pete goes to the closed and exotic country of Myanmar in SE Asia as he searches for a missing woman. He chases a villain up to the heights of Machu Picchu in "The Inca Code." In "Flashover," you'll meet Zehra, a young prosecuting lawyer who gets into more danger than any other lawyer. Read about her in Colin's previous books, "Fallout" (Nominated for the Minnesota Book Awards) and "Reprisal." Or check out, "The Amygdala Hijack." Defense lawyer, Ted Rohrbacher takes on an impossible cases---and it almost kills him in the process. Colin's also written a financial handbook called, "When Can I Tell My Boss, I Quit!" When not writing you'll find him playing a tenor sax in a jazz group called, "BlueMood" and the music of Bob Dylan with a rock band.
