Thriller icon and acclaimed bestseller Stephen Coonts steps into the Interrogation Room to clear up a few things. Stephen studied political science before commissioning into the US Navy and entering flight training. In 1969, he joined an A-6 Intruder Attack Squadron, completed two combat cruises aboard the USS Enterprise, and later served as an A6 flight instructor. Steven left the navy in 1977 and graduated from the University of Colorado School of Law in 1979.

In 1986, Naval Institute Press published his first novel, FLIGHT OF THE INTRUDER, and it spent 28 weeks on the NYT bestseller list before appearing on the big screen in 1991. He’s since been published in nearly four-dozen novels, nonfictions, and anthologies. Steve co-authored a nonfiction entitled Dragon’s Jaw that published in May, and his most recent novel, THE RUSSIA ACCOUNT, just released last month.

For this episode, Stephen and Writers On The Beat host Gavin Reese discussed the longevity of Jake Grafton and the impact of his stories; the study of creative writing and critical elements of fiction; his advice for aspiring writers; and why Nero Wolf should investigate Stephen's homicide.
