Author - born and raised in Sydney, Australia but now lives in Toronto, Canada where his two children reside. P.B. Lawson has always been fascinated by the apparent paradox of ‘man the animal’ and ‘man the higher being’ and has woven this issue into the plot of ‘Dark Inheritance’. During research for the book he had extensive conversations with two convicted murderers, affording him, he believed, an insight into a killer’s mind. An avid sailor, P.B.Lawson has navigated small boats across the Pacific and Atlantic oceans and through the Mediterranean Sea, experiencing the exhilaration and terror of three hurricanes during his voyages.
