Ron CopelandAfter returning from Vietnam, Ron Copeland went through a difficult adjustment period. Finding civilian work boring and unrewarding, he gravitated toward law enforcement, which turned into a thirty-five-year career.

Ron and Terry, his wife of forty-two years, have three children, six grandchildren, and one great-grandchild. When he isn't writing, Ron can be found honing his horsemanship skills, taking art classes, traveling with Terry, and spending time with their children and grandchildren.
