 ........Brendan DuBois, the author of RESURRECTION
DAY, is a former newspaper reporter and a lifelong resident of New Hampshire. ........RESURRECTION DAY is a suspense-thriller that takes place in October 1972, ten years after the Cuban Missile Crisis erupted into a full-scale atomic war, destroying the Soviet Union and decimating the United States. Called "one of the most inventive novels of alternative history since Robert Harris' FATHERLAND," RESURRECTION DAY is a chilling tale of what might have been. ........DuBois' first novel, DEAD SAND, a murder mystery set in his home state, was published in April 1994 by Otto Penzler Books, a division of Macmillan Books. The sequel to DEAD SAND, called BLACK TIDE, was published in February 1995. Both are now available in paperback from Pocket Books. The third Lewis Cole novel, SHATTERED SHELL, was published by St. Martin's Press in March 1999. ........These three novels feature Lewis Cole, a magazine writer and former Department of Defense research analyst, who investigates things mysterious in and around the New Hampshire seacoast.  ........DuBois has
had nearly 40 short stories published in such magazines as Playboy, Mary Higgins Clark Mystery Magazine, Ellery
Queen's Mystery Magazine and Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine. In 1995 one of his short stories -- "The
Necessary Brother" -- won the Shamus Award for Best Short Story of the Year from the Private Eye Writers of
America. He has also been nominated three times -- the most recently in 1997 -- for an Edgar Allan Poe Award from
the Mystery Writers of America for his short fiction. One of his short stories in 1997 was also nominated for the
Anthony Award for Best Mystery Short Story of the Year.........His short stories have also been extensively anthologized, including the 1988, 1990, 1992 and 1995 editions of "The Year's Best Mystery & Suspense Stories," published by Walker Books, as well as the 1995 and 1997 editions of "Year's 25 Best Mystery Short Stories" and the 1997 edition of "Best American Mystery Stories," published by Houghton Mifflin. ........His stories have also appeared in two short story anthologies published in Germany as well as in South Africa. |
