John Foxjohn, known as the master of pace, proves why no one is better "when it comes to uniting great characters with a spine-tingling plot" (Publishers Review).
When is death row better than a not guilty verdict?
When Sterling King agrees to defend a client accused of murder, she never thinks winning the trial will place her client and herself in danger. Her client has evidence against some powerful people. After she wins the case, they kill him, but then it occurs to themhe might have confided in her.
The bomb they plant misses Sterling, but kills four FBI agents. Determined to find the people responsible for the death of the agents, the FBI assigns a team headed by Gary Randall, and old flame from law school, to protect Sterling. In order to keep her alive and the flame from going out, Gary will have to match wits with one of the smartest killers in America. At the same time, he must find porta del diavolo, the devil's doorway, the one only clue the client leaves Sterling.
In 2014, Foxjohn's romantic suspense, Law of Silence, received the prestigious WMP Award of Excellence for the best book of 2014.
Despite the book sales and accolades, Foxjohn says, "I'm just a country boy at heart. "I was born and raised so far back in the woods that they had to pump sunshine to us." With little to do but hunt and fish, Foxjohn's environment created an atmosphere that fostered imagination and dreams, something he would excel at.
At the tender age of seventeen, he quit high school and joined the army. Foxjohn's six years would see him graduate from jump school, Ranger school, and become the youngest sergeant in peacetime army. A tour of Viet Nam and Germany highlighted an extremely successful stint for Foxjohn. After an honorable discharge, Foxjohn followed that up with ten years in law enforcement, including a long tour as a homicide detective. Fulfilling a promise to his dying mother, Foxjohn graduated from college and began a new adventure of teaching and coaching football.
Foxjohn had another of his childhood dreams left to accomplish. When he was twelve, he read a book about Crazy Horse. He said then that one day he would write a book about the fabled Lakota war chief. After retiring, Foxjohn became a writer, and the first book he wrote was an historical fiction titled The People's Warrior: a book about Crazy Horse.
Today Foxjohn spends an enormous amount of time traveling in Texas and across the country, signing books and talking and teaching writing groups about the craft of writing.
