Terrance W Anderson, or “T.W.” as he prefers to be called, has over five decades of senior business management experience. When he can get away both he and his wife love to travel or idle around and fish the area’s surrounding lakes in their boat. T.W. has also been an avid pilot since youth and holds a number of advanced pilot ratings.
T.W.’s writing was born out of a frustration with the lack, at the time, of Christian authors writing modern, relatable suspense and romance novels. It seemed like all the best selling books had language in them that not only offended him, but he was embarrassed that the person beside him glancing over his shoulder might also be offended by it.
On one long business trip, while relaxing beside the inlet at Marina Del Rey he dug out his laptop and started typing out notes about his past aviation and life experiences. That led him to start adding a measure of “What if” to the writings. Before long he had a story line in mind and Tom Rowter came alive on the pages of the “A Reluctant White Knight” novel series. Being of retirement age himself, the author makes his books hero of a similar age thusly giving us an adventure and romance from a mature individual, and then couple’s point of view. Many readers, tired of reading about the limitless energy of some young stud and his vixen, will be able to relate to the aches, pains and limitations of this series' hero and heroine having a few years on them, yet being truly in love.
T.W. tries to show his characters as true to real life as possible. His main characters may be courageous but they aren’t super heroes. They have their weaknesses and failures like we all do and they reflect his personal faith and Christian beliefs. The action and problems that come to life in the pages are right out of everyday events. And the romances are as complicated as life truly plays out. In story development he uses not only his own past experiences but the counsel of friends he’s developed in other fields of aviation, international business and real estate, journalism as well as various local, state and federal law enforcement organizations.

Coyote Running - A Reluctant White Knight novel - Volume 2
Reviewed By: Editorial Board, The Columbia Review of Books & Films 1/21/2015
This is the second installment in the "Reluctant White Knight" series of novels from author T.W. Anderson. The story picks up as our hero, Tom Rowter, faces new challengers with his now familiar mix of reluctance and gusto.
In a natural progression from the first novel in the series, "Will It Be Sunny Tomorrow?" and maintaining a similar storytelling tone, "Coyote Running" starts with a short leap of time from where we left off. Rowter, who had been recovering emotionally from losing his first and longtime wife, is now married to the woman we know so well from his previous adventure. The couple had just celebrated their first Thanksgiving together on the ranch, but now they are parting ways in different directions, both geographically and plot wise.
While the story starts off with a measured pace, interspersed with flashbacks to what had happened in the preceding year, the pace picks up quickly. The flashbacks work well as they anchor the relationship between the mature lovers and give depth to what they experience next.
With some foreign locations and familiar themes (decisiveness, a strong sense of justice, and dry humor) this book provides suspense and action, testing the hero's commitment to his new bride, as well as his loyalty to past relationships, and a sense of patriotism. The flying scenes, which reflect an infectious passion for aviation, are an enjoyable recouping of the first novel while taking us to new heights. The sense of peril is real and Rowter relies on his skills and experience to get out of tight spots.
In summary, "Coyote Running" makes for an enjoyable action adventure with sensible continuity from "Will It Be Sunny Tomorrow" and leaves a door wide open for what will happen in the next installment. Enjoy the ride!
