James M. Jackson writes justice-driven thrillers with "brains and bite," including the award-winning Seamus McCree series. That series explores financial crimes, family relationships, and their deadly intersection across eight novels, two novellas, and several short stories. His Niki Undercover Thriller series, consisting of two novels and a third in process, stars Ashley Prescott, an undercover federal agent fighting domestic terrorism of all kinds.
A life member of Sisters in Crime and past president of its Guppy Chapter, Jackson calls home the deep woods of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. These days he is a snowbird with clipped wings, retreating only to Madison, Wisconsin when weather and road conditions make access to his U.P. home problematic.
When he's not tormenting his characters, he's likely birdwatching, hunting for moose sheds, or tracking wolves. Find news, extras, and upcoming events at his website.
