About the Authors
MAX ALLAN COLLINS is a Mystery Writers of America “Grand Master.” He is author of the Shamus-winning Nathan Heller historical thrillers (Better Dead) and the graphic novel Road to Perdition, basis of the Academy Award–winning film. His innovative Quarry novels led to a Cinemax TV series, and he is coauthor with his wife Barbara of the award-winning Trash ’n’ Treasures mystery series (Antiques Wanted, Barbara Allan). He has completed a dozen posthumous Mickey Spillane mysteries, and has directed and/or written two feature-length documentaries and six features.

As part of the university’s selective screenwriting program, he wrote Open House, a murder-mystery/comedy short film that premiered at the Traverse City Film Festival. He is currently a doctoral student in American history at Princeton University.
