Author R. Bruce Walker studied English Literature at Glendon College of York University in Toronto, Canada. He is a former advertising copywriter, creative director and senior agency executive. He has worked for several leading global agencies earning numerous awards and accolades for his creative work. Having fled the advertising business after nearly twenty-five years, he currently resides near Savannah, Georgia with his wife, Lynne, and two irrepressible Labrador Retrievers. He divides his time between his writing desk, his Thermador® cook top, and the golf course outside his back door. HANGING LIES is his third novel. It follows the successful release of his debut work, JESTERS’ DANCE, which earned a brief albeit satisfying turn on the Amazon Kindle Top 100 and fast on the heels of an extremely topical tale about fracking, politics, and America’s energy future entitled, THE LAST CANARY, that was published in June, 2012.
