Alex Juden is the author of two previous Griffin Post Great War mystery, Red Tiger Hunting and Crossing Darkness. He lives with his wife in Houston, Texas. Two of his three children remain in Texas while the third has moved to California (for college anyway). Prior to writing, he enjoyed a variety of jobs, including naval aviator, trial lawyer, and public company general counsel. Alex now has a small farm in Texas where the vineyard is dangerously close to thriving and the trees might actually bear fruit in the near future. He studied history and political science at Rice University.
