Tom Odgen Keenan

I write because I just won’t do anything else. Thirty years as a social worker in mental health care was my apprenticeship in understanding people and the dynamics that occur between them. It informs my writing. I live in Glasgow, Scotland, which has a rich tradition: the ‘Tartan Noir’ in crime writing. It is a dynamic city, with the kind of conflicts and characters which are a rich vein for a writer. In Nomine Patris ... is my first major literary work. I have my head, heart and soul into my books. I hope my books move people, raise their consciousness, make them think!
