The Breastplate of Faith and Love

Paul McGoran lives in Newport, Rhode Island. In his life before fiction, he was a laboratory technician, a Russian language interpreter for the U. S. Navy, a career marketing executive, a management consultant, and a day trader. As a writer in the crime genre since 2005, his inspiration comes in equal parts from spending way too much time watching black and white film noir from the forties and fifties, and from reading way too many hard-boiled detective stories. McGoran is currently working on another novel, Sooner or Later, Delicate Death, which takes Stafford Boyle back to his old hometown to solve the revenge murder of the bully who terrorized his childhood.
