Summary

Marc Cameron went from the plains of Texas to the frozen tundra of Alaska, chasing his two greatest desires: to be a US Marshal and to author books. Bitten by the bug at an early age, Marc went from writing reports to writing best-selling novels, hitting #1 in the New York Times. Along the way, he gathered stories that would inspire some of his plots. His popular Jericho Quinn and Arliss Cutter series led to his being tapped to write seven novels in the Tom Clancy series.
