T.S. Epperson is a mult-award-winning Author of Mystery/Thriller novels.

T.S. is one of several pen names Tom Epperson uses, a respectful nod to one of his literary heroes, T.S. Eliot.

Tom was born the seventh of twelve siblings. He was an altar boy beginning at age seven, and a bar band musician beginning at age eight. His childhood was a happy rhythm of walking to daily Mass in the mornings and participating in music rehearsals in the evenings. On Friday and Saturday nights, as a young boy, he closed down the bars with his older brothers' band and then served or attended Mass Sunday morning.

His life has been and still is, an effort to balance the worldly with the spiritual, as his writing reflects. He is fascinated by colorful, complex characters, and has had the privilege and challenge of interacting with many along the way. Tom is a hopeless optimist and a romantic realist. He is the proud father of two adult sons, the finest of the finest, and lives in South Carolina with his wife, who is his companion in a sweeping time travel adventure. So far, they have traveled nearly four and a half decades. Together, they strive to live more in the present than in the past, and his favorite activity is to stand in salt water and teach his grandchildren how to lure exotic creatures from the sea.
