Amazon Bestselling Author C.J. West’s first novel, Sin And Vengeance, was adapted for film by award-winning screenwriter Marla Cukor, and optioned into development by Beantown Productions, LLC. Edgar nominated author, Tim Hallinan says, “C.J. West is a powerful and original writer, and I look forward to reading him for a long time.” Vincent Zandri, author of The Innocent, says, “C.J. West is one of my favorite indie authors writing today.” Avid fans insist that any mystery or suspense lover who reads Sin And Vengeance and The End of Marking Time will become a C.J. West fan. C.J.’s Randy Black series features Sin And Vengeance, A Demon Awaits, and Gretchen Greene. The series is unusual because Randy Black undergoes a major transformation in the second book. Many readers are amazed at how strongly they root for a character they despised. The End of Marking Time provides a touch of sci-fi as Michael O’Connor navigates a criminal justice system that substitutes counselors and monitoring technology for prisons and guards. This intense psychological novel challenges readers to consider all they know about crime and justice. For traditional mystery readers, C.J. offers the Lorado Martin Mystery Series about a junk man who splits his time between the worlds of antiques and collectibles and his work providing housing and jobs for recovering addicts. The first book in the series, Dinner At Deadman’s was released in 2012. Find C.J. at www.22wb.com or on facebook at www.facebook.com/cjwestfans
