My Story:
My book, The Devil’s Alibi, published by Gypsy Shadow Publishing, earned sixth place in the Preditors & Editors Reader’s Poll for mystery novels, and is available at all of the usual distributers as an EBook or paperback.
The following review appeared in the winter issue of Life in the FingerLakes magazine. “Author Len Dawson creates a likeable, mild-mannered lawyer who frequently seeks input on cases from his wife Melanie. He also relies on a street-wise friend, Rick; and Mike, a helpful police detective, to solve these heinous crimes. They must navigate a dark side ofIthaca
My novella-length crime story, Everyone’s On the Take, was also published as an EBook by Gypsy Shadow Publishing. In this somewhat-dark, slightly-erotic crime story a disillusioned mother, her inept husband, her teenage son, her husband’s sleazy friend, and a hit man who’s attracted to her, each hatch a plot to exploit some illicit cash. As they interact, they unravel each other’s plans, committing crimes, making new plans, leaving dead bodies in their wake, and eventually coming together for a final confrontation.
I also had two illustrated articles published by Fingerlakes.com, and my short story, Dead Lucky, was published by Short-Story.Me. It can be read for free on their website.
I spent 27 years working as a computer analyst, have done some free-lance technical writing, and have a degree in history.
The next several web pages on this site contain samples of my writing. I encourage you to send me comments and suggestions.
