Additional Information
Kansas born/Australia based novelist whose geopolitical thrillers are known for their international settings, unpredictable plots, colorful characters, positive values, surprise twists and sweetly layered endings.
Positive values triumphing in a violent world is a recurring theme for Turner, which comes as no surprise given a Bachelor's Degree in religion and a Master's Degree in human history.
He has smuggled Bibles, worked as a courier and transported thousands of pounds of medical supplies to needy hospitals behind the old Iron Curtain. As a journalist in Los Angeles, he had over 130 articles published in "Lifeline," the magazine of the Union Rescue Mission. He turned to writing fiction in 1996, with his 1999 espionage novel, "The Second Thirteen," earning him international acclaim. Barnes and Noble described Turner as the first novelist to employ an animated trailer to promote his book, with many other fiction writers now following suit.
