Axel Howerton is a former entertainment journalist and Prairies region director of the Crime Writers of Canada, and the Arthur Ellis Award nominated author of the detective caper Hot Sinatra; the modern gothic fairytale Furr; the zombie novella Living Dead at Zigfreid & Roy; and the noir fable Con Morte. When he's not on-duty as a purveyor of literary badassery and hometown anti-hero, Axel wanders the foothills of Southern Alberta with his two brilliant sons, and a wife that is way out of his league.
