Background
Information
A Canadian, W.C. Hewitt has long been interested in observing the trials and social tribulations that now face the new wave of socio-equity and inter-racial strife. Having spent most of his life working in the public sector, Mr. Hewitt has had hands on experience in dealings with the social structures that now preside over the bruised and uncertain cultivation of today. An amateur Archaeologist, Historian and Titanic enthusiast (Mr. Hewitt was a member of the Titanic Historical Society) he shows a high regard for historical accuracy and an understanding of the Human Psyche. With captivating relish he succeeds in bringing a literary bond between mystery, adventure and human enigma. Ian Fleming, Clive Cussler and Arthur Conan Doyle are among his favourite authors.
