A lifelong Coloradoan, John A. Daly graduated from the University of Northern Colorado with a degree in business administration and computer information systems. With a thirst for creative expression that went beyond the logic and absolutes of computer programming, John developed an interest in writing. He currently writes political, cultural, and media analysis columns for a national news website, and a weekly parenting column for his local newspaper. "Blood Trade" is his second book in the "Sean Coleman Thriller" series.
