A Pepper Keane Mystery
by Mark CohenThis article relates to The Fractal Murders
The Judge Advocate General's Corps are naval lawyers. The JAGs
were established within the Department of the Navy in 1967 at which time these
specialized military lawyers became a distinct professional group within the
Navy, similar to physicians and chaplains.
Mark Cohen served as a JAG for 20 years. His next book, Bluetick Revenge has just been published.
The Fractal Murders is one of those relatively rare
self-publishing success stories. Mark Cohen
worked with three agents who failed to find a publisher for it,
so in 2002 he published it himself. Two years later he'd sold a few thousand books and
got plenty of word of mouth coverage - at which point Mysterious Press, a division of Warner Books, bought the rights and
republished it.
