David began writing fiction in 1994 when he conceptualized The Dying Game.  While still in the planning stages, he realized the finished work would approach 800 pages.  Not wishing to write a first novel of that size, he searched and evaluated the alternatives. The twists and turns of the original concept had two plot twists where the story changed directions. That's when the idea of a trilogy was born.  Click here the rest of the history.

Doug Carlson, David's lovable main character, is finally getting well-deserved attention.  He is 40-ish and pretty much an average guy.  Doug was also a Marine when he served in the undeclared war in Vietnam, but that was a long time ago.  Since then much has changed. 
When the trilogy begins, Doug is a comfortable banker whose life seems to be going nowhere; that is until he meets Mr. C, a Mafia boss from Los Angeles.  Click here for Doug's Fan Club.
The thesis of The Dying Game trilogy proposes the provocative question, "Do law-abiding people kill?"  David believes they do.  Click here to determine for yourself if the thesis is realistic.
