About the Author
Ryan has spent most of his life working in punk rock clubs, booking shows, and hanging out in dive bars. Now, he has taken that punk rock sensibility and wove it into a series of thrillers that started with Tears of the Dragon. He also has a couple of free short horror stories on the internet. When he isn’t writing and reading, he tends a garden, hikes, and hangs out on a tropical beach.
