Larry Crane
A transplanted Mid-westerner I've been bringing my Illinois sensibility to stage plays. Along the way I wrote A Bridge to Treachery. I think writing a novel is like 'opening up' a play. I began a seven year Airborne Ranger Infantry career in the mud in Germany, commanded Basic Trainees at Fort Knox, and completed his military service after a tour in Vietnam as an ARVN Ranger battalion advisor. I've written non-fiction articles for outdoor magazines, as well as numerous plays, and short fiction and am currently at work on a sequel to "A Bridge to Treachery." Jan and I have five children between us, ten grandchildren, and two great grandchildren. "Children ourselves when we wed?" Of course. And we live in splendid isolation on the coast of Maine.

A Bridge to Treachery
Thriller
Retired Colonel Lou Christopher is an ex-Army Ranger, contentedly working as a New York investment broker. After being assigned a number of lucrative accounts and becoming accustomed to living the good life, he discovers nothing good comes without a price. When his former military skills are requested under a threat of losing everything he has, Col. Christopher soon discovers the price may be too high to pay. Handed a group of misfits to assemble into a military strike team, Christopher is coerced into leading the team on a mission of domestic terrorism. His strike team is discovered; the mission is compromised. A deadly firefight erupts and only Christopher and a beautiful female member of his team survive. Was a terrible mistake made, with Christopher to blame—or was his team the victim of an ultimate act of betrayal? With his strike force decimated, Christopher and his lone teammate turn from hunted to hunters. As time quickly runs out, they struggle to use their unique set of skills to exact a decisive revenge on those responsible for this treachery.
