R. H. Emmers has had a number of careers in his life: reporter and editor, crisis communications consultant, private detective, and insurance fraud investigator. Ten years ago, he decided to devote himself to writing. At first, it was short stories, a number of which were published in literary magazines. Emmers also published a collection called Lynerkim’s Dance and Other Stories, which is available on Amazon. The Secret History is his first novel, and it grew out of his fascination with Mexico, particularly Baja, and an eagerness to look beneath the surface of the intelligence apparatus (the Dark State, if you will).
