Wright Gres grew up in Tampa, Florida, graduated from University of Florida, and worked a number of jobs including as a printer, and in the advertising agency business. You know the author is writing his own copy here, right? In 1983 he walked away from a good paying job in corporate America and wondered, what next? He signed on as a deckhand on a large stays'l schooner making a transatlantic and cruising with the owner and owner's party in the Mediterranean for six months. A journal of this experience eventually led to his writing MACEDONIA PASSAGE, a novel of adventure and intrigue. Much of the descriptions of the people, places, and sailing experiences in the book are reflections from that adventure, though he is hasty to add, most of the arson, kidnapping, murder, and, oh yeah, intrigue were born of his imagination. He currently lives on the Altamaha River in southeast Georgia (and dreams, of having homes in the Hamptons, southern France, and St Croix. You know, like the giants in our industry.) He is a tugboat captain and continues to write. His second novel, THE EMPTY GRAVE, comes close on the heels of his first, only a decade or so later. THE EMPTY GRAVE is a stand alone novel, though the readers of MACEDONIA PASSAGE will enjoy following Captain Frank Brown, Turkish Intelligence Agent Nevser Akkaya Chase, and South Korean deckhand Chang-Ki as they unite two years later in search of a WWII war criminal and attempt to recover a huge treasure for the Greek people from whom it was stolen.
