Profile Information

Hometown:
Newburgh, Indiana
About Me:
I am the author of the Indianapolis based, Colton Parker Mystery series that features hardboiled PI Colton Parker.
Like Colton, I was formerly employed by the Indianapolis office of the FBI and come from a long line of police officers, spanning several generations.
The lastest novel in my series, "The Root of All Evil" was released in January, with "The Lost Sheep" to follow in July.
I enjoy good books, working out (weights and heavy bag), travel and handgun competition.

Support the Independents

This is my first "post" since joining Crime Space, and I'm probaby preaching to the choir (sorry for the cliche) but it's something that needs to be said.

I had an event at the Mystery Company in Carmel Indiana this past week, along with several other writers, and we had over 70 people in attendance. This was due, in no small part, to the efforts of store owner Jim Huang.

Jim has been a big (and early) supporter of mine as I suspect he has with many of you. And Jim is only one…

I meant to send you a congrats for the Colts (I'm from Baltimore), but my friend request accidentally and without the comment. Peyton Manning may be the best QB ever. I believed that he was doing places that first year he played in Baltimore.

And yes, you have excellent selections of books, TV and movies.

Hi Brandt, I enjoyed meeting you in Dallas. Haven't tackled those three books I bought--Seventy Times Seven, The Root of All Evil and The Lost Sheep but every time I glance over at my bedside table, I hear them calling my name. Soon, I hope!

Hi Brandt, I recognized your picture from one that I saw in the Mystery Company's newsletter (led me to your website--nice) a month or two ago Didn't realize you were a member here too until just now. Just thought I'd say hi. :)

Brandt, let me add my enthusiastic "Here, here!" to your blog about supporting independent mystery bookstores. In fact, ALL independent stores. I'm blessed to have signed at Reed's Gumtree Bookstore here in Tupelo, one of only four bookstores that would host John Grisham when he started out. (And where Grisham still comes to sign books every year.)
