Dean C. Ferraro lives at the foot of the majestic Rocky Mountains in Colorado with his wife and their two amazing children. After getting sidetracked practicing law full-time for over twenty years, finally he pursued his true passion for writing, completing his first novel twelve years after starting it. Inspired by a world famous fellow Ole Miss Law graduate, Dean now writes legal thrillers full time.

Dean earned his Bachelor's Degree from California State Polytechnic University, Pomona ("Cal Poly Pomona") and his J.D. Degree from the University of Mississippi School of Law ("Ole Miss"). He is licensed to practice law in multiple states.

Dean is a former Assistant District Attorney, where he worked several years as one of the top prosecuting attorneys in the state of Tennessee. As a prosecutor, he tried countless cases, including seven first degree murder trials all resulting in convictions. Inspired by some of his real life experiences as an attorney, his writing brings to life the saying that fact is stranger than fiction.

Today, Dean has his own law firm, and in addition to practicing law, now dedicates much of his time pursuing his lifelong passion of writing.
