Brief description: Doc Ephraim Bates has been writing comedic action thrillers since age fourteen.

Doc's fast-paced books feature unexpected plot twists and witty dialog. In a world of deception and lies, his characters are famous for their undying friendship and loyalty to each other. Fans of Elmore Leonard, Ed McBain, and David Baldacci will find a home here. Doc has lived abroad in London and Seoul.

Review Quotes:
Reader praise for Chasing Revenge:
"A wildly humorous slice of escapist action thrills...The good guys aren't saints, but they are GOOD guys. The bad guys are really BAD. Lots of action mixed with a few teaspoons of hilarity, a smidgen of philosophy, and even a touch of romance..."
"Very hard to put down...Harper, while a bit rough around the edges, is...smart, insightful, and very much a character that you can't help but love!"
