Bill Frank is a retired meteorologist who has succeeded far beyond the world of professional journals in bringing a distinctive literary style to the modern detective story.
His focus is a unique one, the realm of international art crime, including the use of stolen art in supporting organized crime and international terrorism. Young Blood and Old Paint was a finalist in the Private Eye Writers of America's best first novel contest. And Georgia in the Wind, Frank's short story featuring Tommy McNaul, was selected from among 200 submissions for Ballentine's 2019 mystery anthology, Odd Partners
