Jerry Lowenstein, an octogenarian and a nice guy, has written a fantastic mystery/ suspense novel that takes place just after WW2 on and near Bikini Atoll. He actually witnessed an atomic bomb test. Can you imagine that?
Aaron Paul Lazar writes to soothe his soul and lives in the lovely Genesee Valley of upstate New York.
Background
Information
I grew up in rural New England, surrounded by music, art, literature, gardens, bountiful family feasts, and a host of animals. Summers were spent in Maine, in my grandparents' rustic fishing resort. They were magical and innocent times, and I was a supremely happy child. Shy, retiring, and an avid reader, I always had my nose in a book, and often read outdoors. I loved being outside. I'd ride my old gelding to a quiet field, stop beneath a tree, and read as he munched on the lush grass. I guess that's when my romantic soul began to stir.
Early on, I devoured mysteries. Adventures with horses and dogs also figured prominently in my "Arrow Book Club" selections. My parents would bring home boxes of books from auctions, and I'd find myself happily lost in The Hardy Boys for weeks. I graduated to Agatha Christie, Rex Stout, Helen McInnes, Alistair McLean, and Isaac Asimov in my teen years. As time went on, I progressed to my current favorite novelists who include: John D. McDonald, James Patterson, Dick Francis, Clive Cussler, Laurie King, Lillian Jackson Braun, Rex Stout, Peter Mayle, Dean Koontz, Stephen King and Tony Hillerman, to name a few. I loved writing stories as a youth and kept copious journals.
