donbrownbooks.comDon Brown, born June 3, 1960 in Plymouth, North Carolina,[1] Brown is the author of six published novels, and is perhaps best known for his bestselling novel, Treason, released by Zondervan Publishing Company in 2005.[2]
A Washington County, North Carolina native, Brown received his Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and received a Juris Doctor degree from Campbell University's Norman Adrian Wiggins School of Law.[3] He continued his studies at the United States Naval War College in Newport, Rhode Island, earning the Navy's nonresident certificate in International Law. [4] Brown spent five years in the U.S. Navy as an officer in the Judge Advocate General's Corps (JAG). Brown is author of Zondervan's Navy Justice Series: including Treason (2005), Hostage (2005),[5] Defiance (2006), and Black Sea Affair, released in 2008.[6] His fifth novel, Malacca Conspiracy, a novel in which terrorists launch attacks against oil tankers in the Malacca Straights, was released in 2010.[7] [8] [9]
Brown's sixth novel, Thunder in the Morning Calm, a novel that explores the question of whether American servicemen who were listed as MIAs may still be alive in North Korea from the Korean War, was released in the summer of 2011.[10]. [11]
Thunder in the Morning Calm was the first novel released in Zondervan's Pacific Rim Series, and Brown has stated in interviews that he penned the novel in part to bring attention to the issue of Americans left behind in North Korean prison camps at the end of the Korean War.[12] [13]
