Perhaps you may have been wondering why I have not updated this website since February? Well, I was putting the finishing touches on my new book. Take a look:

Olympic Gold Medalist.

Ohio State Professor.

Cold-blooded Killer.

In the sweltering summer of 1929, the people of Columbus, Ohio, were enthralled by news of the Ohio State University veterinary professor and Olympic gold medal-winning pistol shooter on trial for the murder of his 24-year-old lover, who was a medical student. My new book reveales how Dr. James Howard Snook was captured and interrogated, including his gory confession of Theora Hix’s death. During the trial, the details of the illicit love affair were so salacious that newspapers could only hint about what really led to the coed’s murder and the professor’s ultimate punishment. For the first time, read the full account of this astonishing story, from scandalous beginning to tragic end.
