Bryon Quertermous’s first play was a shameless rip-off of THE MALTESE FALCON and was produced when he was 19. His short stories have appeared in several print and online magazines and are forthcoming in the anthologies THUGLIT PRESENTS HARDCORE HARDBOILED (Kensington Books, Spring 200 
and THE PRISONER OF MEMORY AND 25 OF THE YEARS FINEST CRIME AND MYSTERY STORIES (Pegasus Books, May 2008).
He’s on the fourth draft of his third “first” novel.
