Tyler McKenzie's global perspective is informed by his extensive travel and life abroad, as well as professional years in hard-news journalism, television production, feature film development, and as an entrepreneur and business owner. Throughout this wide-ranging experience, he's seen up close the profound, destabilizing effects that domestic and global macro-economic and geopolitical forces can have on local economies and communities. McKenzie finesses these forces onto the page in his debut novel, a globe-trotting thriller. When he isn't plotting a literary end to humanity, he enjoys a quiet life with his wife, two dogs, and three fish.
