Craig N. Markley writes the kind of books he grew up loving: traditional, plot-driven Westerns and historical fiction about ordinary people pushed into extraordinary danger.
His Marshal Digbe stories bring back the spirit of the classic frontier tale, with hard choices, rough country, and a lawman who does what's right when it costs him. His historical fiction draws on a lifelong passion for military history and the real courage of the men who lived it.
Craig also writes thrillers and suspense, including The Gatherers, The Day Las Vegas Died, Terminal Horizon, City of Broken Angels, Ticket to 1885, and The Amazon Photograph.
He lives in Virginia with his wife, who, along with his father, is the first to read every new story and give him an honest opinion.
