Alias Simon Hawkes: Further Adventures of Sherlock Holmes in New York
Philip Carraher was born in Manhattan and continues to live in New York City, now residing in the borough of Brooklyn with his wife, Ann. His philosophy regarding his books is threefold: first, they should be entertaining, second, they should strive to rise above simple entertainment, i.e., be thought provoking, and, lastly, each new book should not merely be a practiced variation of the previous one.
