Nach seiner zwanzigjährigen Karriere als Hochschullehrer schreibt Neil Plakcy nun hauptberuflich, in Gesellschaft seines Mannes und ihrer beiden wilden Golden Retriever. Er hat das Glück, in Südflorida zu leben, wo er mit den Hunden unter Palmen spazieren geht und ihnen Sand von den Zehen pult, und er könnte nicht glücklicher darüber sein. Seine Website ist www.mahubooks.com.
Er war die Art von Kind, die immer ein Buch dabei hatte und las, selbst wenn sie in Geschäften hinter seinen Eltern herlief. Er begann mit E-Books, weil er so immer etwas zu lesen hatte, wenn er sein Telefon dabei hatte. Seine Lieblingsgenres sind MM-Romanzen und gemütliche Krimis, mit einer Prise Fantasy und Science-Fiction. Er sammelt Starbucks-Bearista-Bären und Gummienten und alles, was mit Hunden zu tun hat!

From a reader review:
"Neil Plakcy's The Burning Water is ripped from todays headlines - even though he began writing it five years ago. As with everything Plakcy writes, included with the mystery, suspense and death, there is a welcome dose of history. The historical details are is so cleverly inserted that, until you finish reading his books, you don't realize what an expert history lesson you've just received."
