August Birch lives in Southwest Michigan with his wife and son. He weaves dark humor, unexpected plot twists, and a rural, blue-collar work ethic throughout his writing. August creates page-flipping thrillers, built to make you late for work and keep you well-past bedtime. August started his writing career publishing a dozen non-fiction books under a pseudonym, but made his commitment to fiction at the young age of thirty-nine. When August isn’t trying to kill people in strange ways he shaves his head with a safety razor, carries a pocket knife, and drinks black coffee.
