Earl Emerson was born July 8, 1948 in Tacoma, Washington. He is the author of the very popular Mac Fontana series as well as the Thomas Black detective series.

He was again nominated for a Shamus for his visa mer novel The Vanishing Smile in 1996 (another in the Thomas Black series).

Seems to heal mighty fast from injuries incurred in the line of duty. Enough women willing to use intimacy to get their way and with more psychological hangups.
Lots of fire department lingo shows the author's done his share of work as a fire fighter.… (mer)
