Thomas A Rohrer

Thomas A. Rohrer, with an engineering degree and his own company, traveled the world installing ships' engine equipment. He started writing toward the end of his professional career. He puts into words the situations he had experienced in a lifetime of travel around the world on all sorts of transportation. Life, he observed, was indeed stranger than fiction. But actual situations often develop too slowly to hold most people's interest. However, true facts can be reassembled into a very readable tale that could have turned out that way in real life.

Personally, he has experienced widowhood, a second marriage and step children, and now a retirement community of his own. With twelve novels under his belt, he feels inspired to tell about the enchanting life one can live by giving up a majestic home on a hill or in a valley, to live in a community that eats, entertains, walks, swims, and governs together for the rest of its golden days. He could not help but insert a little mystery - one not likely to ever occur in these surroundings, but an adventure Tom hopes will tickle and titillate his happy readers.
