Matriarch Game: A Justin McGee Novel (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781950584505)

MATT FITZPATRICK's dream to be a writer started around age nine. At the time, he was an only-child and with no siblings, books became handy companions. If everyone around him was busy, picking up a book would instantly provide a connection to interesting people and wondrous places. He began early on by reading Judy Blume and Beverly Cleary, but not long after, he quickly moved on to Stephen King and Nelson DeMille. A Boston College graduate, Matt grew up in a politically active and connected Irish family.

To explore these people and ghosts well within midlife, he finds is an adventure. Crosshairs (2018), and Matriarch Game, are not books that he could have written fifteen years ago, for the memories and vapor trails would not be so poignant.Upon reaching adulthood, he found himself steeped in the American dream. He had a beautiful wife who had a very successful career, two angelic daughters who he will forever adore, earned a US Coast Guard sea captain's license, and moved to Cape Cod.

This is his dream....
