Tom Fowler is a USA Today bestselling mystery and thriller writer. He was born and raised in Baltimore and now lives in the DC suburbs of Maryland with his family. He writes the C.T. Ferguson mysteries and the John Tyler thrillers, both set in his home city.
Even from a young age, Tom wanted to write. He was about seven or eight, so his short stories were brief and awful. Among them was a “murder mystery” in which no one died. In the intervening years, Tom has gotten over this problem with killing characters in his stories.
Tom’s stories feature flawed heroes, action, and plenty of snark
