VJ Books Presents Author Ace Atkins!

Ace AtkinsAce Atkins is the award-winning, New York Times Bestselling author of almost thirty books. He has written eleven books in the Quinn Colson series and several true crime novels based on infamous criminals and killers. He was also chosen by Robert B. Parker’s family in 2010 to continue the Spenser series.

The latest Spenser novel penned by Atkins, Bye Bye Baby, Boston PI Spenser is contacted by the chief of staff for Carolina Garcia-Ramirez, a rising star in national politics. Tough, outspoken, and driven, the young congresswoman has ignited a new conversation in Boston about race, poverty, health care, and the environment. She’s used to the antipathy and intimidation women of color often face when seeking power, but an FBI agent warns Spenser that Garcia-Ramirez might be in real danger this time.

As the primary nears and threats become a deadly plot, it’s up to Spenser, Hawk, and a surprise trusted ally to ensure the congresswoman is safe. This is Spenser doing what he does best, living by a personal code and moral compass that can’t ever be broken.

Before turning to writing novels, Atkins worked as a crime reporter for The Tampa Tribune in his 20s, and was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize and the Livingston Award for his feature series on an unsolved 1950s murder case.

During his time as a reporter, Atkins published his first 2 novels, and by age 30 he switched over to writing novels full time. His Pulitzer-winning story would later become the basis of his novel White Shadow (2006).

Atkins's fictional works have earned him a plethora of award nominations, including three Edgar Award nominations. He also writes essays and investigative pieces for several national magazines including Outside and Garden & Gun. In July of 2020, it was announced that HBO would be developing a series based on the Quinn Colson novels.

He was born in 1970 and attended Auburn University. His football career with the Auburn Tigers included being featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated.

Atkins currently lives in Oxford, Mississippi with his family.
