Shane was born and raised in Tazewell County, Illinois, two and a half hours south of Chicago.

Though he has been writing for most of his life, he has been, in short order: a drywall finisher, a movie theater concessions worker, a lawn mower, a cafeteria worker, a bartender, a copy boy, accountant, translator, teacher of English as a foreign language, and, finally, an IT consultant.

He is a graduate of the creative writing program at the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana, and currently lives in Vienna, Austria with his wife and three children.

You can visit Shane at his website, on facebook and at Amazon.

My mainstays are, as always, John Sandford (Lucas Davenport but lately I've been getting into Virgil Flowers as well), R.J. Ellory, Ian Rankin, Tana French, and many more. Alex Michaelides has been a new discovery this year.(less)
