Charles Dougherty wrote quite a bit of fiction before publishing Deception in Savannah, his first novel. Most of his earlier fiction works took the form of business plans, written to secure funding for projects and startup ventures during his corporate and consulting work, but he put all of that behind him when he wrote Deception in Savannah, a tongue-in-cheek crime novel. Since Deception in Savannah was published, he has written a number of other books. The Bluewater Thrillers are set in the yachting world of the Caribbean and chronicle the adventures of two young women running a luxury charter yacht in a rough-and-tumble environment. Besides the Bluewater Thrillers, he wrote Twisted Love, a psycho-thriller, and The Lost Tourist Franchise, a short story about one of the characters from Deception in Savannah. He has also written two non-fiction books. Life’s a Ditch is the story of how he and his wife moved aboard their sailboat, Play Actor, and their adventures along the east coast of the U.S. Dungda de Islan’ relates their experiences while cruising the Caribbean. He resides with his wife aboard Play Actor, sailing wherever their fancy and the trade winds take them.
