WILL I don't care what happens to me, really, I don't. But Asheley . . . she had nothing to do with any of this. ASHELEY It's not like it sounds. He had a good heart. He trusted me. And I always did the best I could to help him. WILL It's not her fault. None of it. Okay then. The guy in the photo. I killed him . . . but I had to. I had no choice. Why That's complicated. That'll take a while.
Sean Olin was born and raised in Wisconsin, where he grew up listening to blues records with his dad, and reading detective novels. He started writing when he was a kid - his first story was about dinosaurs, but these days his material is a little darker. When he's not exploring the nightmarish side of teenage life, he's riding his bike or watching film noir. These days Sean is either trying to invent new ways to excite lovers of suspense and thrillers, or he's wandering around New York, waiting for adventure.
