Burl Barer is a Edgar Award winning author and two-time Anthony Award nominee with extensive media, advertising, marketing, and public relations experience. In addition to non-fiction/ true crime best sellers, Barer also writes new adventures of Leslie Charteris's The Saint, and the Jeff Reynolds series of private eye novels and the American Panther series based on the life of the world's greatest safe cracker, Paul "Punch" Stanimirovic.
