​​​​​​​    A Hybrid Traditional and Independent Author, David left traditional publishing in 2008, to become an independently published writer. He published Angels in Mourning, his ‘homage’ to the old-time private detective books of the 50’s and the 60’s. He used to sneak them from his parents’ night tables and read them as a young boy. Angels is a contemporary take on the old-style noir detective. Angels in Mourning won the Amazon.com Book of the Month Reader’s Choice Award.
