Craig Hooper is the author of the Garrison Chase series. He was born and raised in Ontario, Canada. Growing up, he played lots of sports, and was an avid reader of action adventure and suspense novels. After earning a bachelor's degree in kinesiology from McMaster University, Craig left Canada and moved to Hawaii to pursue a lifelong dream of surfing.

After years of traveling and surfing, Craig settled in Southern California where he earned two masters' degrees and began adjunct teaching. While teaching part-time, he wrote his first standalone novel, a religious thriller. Though it never did get published, it spurred Craig on to keep writing.

Craig, along with his wife Janine, moved to Central California where he took a job in academia and began work on his first book in the suspense series starring Garrison Chase. Years later, he landed a publishing contract with Endeavour Media for THE GREATEST GOOD.

When Craig's not busy writing his next book in the series, you'll find him surfing or hanging out on the beach with his wife and three children.
