About

Eugene Owen’s debut series of novels is about a Detective named Marc McKinley living in the beach town of East Bay.

After 20+ years of living in and surfing in East Coast Beach Towns, from New Hampshire to Miami, I wanted to bring the best of all of them together into a new town for readers to fall in love with.

This series has been in my head for years, and one day I finally started putting it down on paper. Like anyone who picks up one of my books, you probably stayed up late into the night as a kid reading the Hardy Boys or Nancy Drew, and ventured later in life to guys like Johnson, Box, White, Hiassen, and Deaver.

My passion for surfing and the ocean and snowboarding and the mountains, coupled with my love of adventure and travel, are the foundation of these books. It is my hope that readers of the series will love the characters, places, and plots as much as I have loved creating them!
