About the Book

Alaska Writers Guild's 2012 Writer's Achievement Award

How does a high school valedictorian, former member of the famed 101st Airborne, respected church deacon, husband and father of three end up with a first-degree murder conviction and serving life without parole?

Deacon's Crossbow is a bone-chilling and compelling work of true crime - about fate, fear, facts and personality, especially that of convict Donald S. Graham.

Donald and his wife were driving home from dance lessons when they happened upon two men on Interstate 95 in Massachusetts. When Donald reached for his crossbow, all hell broke loose. The end result: the male driver is dead and the deacon is in prison for the rest of his life. You will follow a labyrinth of events from the incident all the way to the present. The story is unique because it includes Mr. Graham's views and sentiments from within the walls of incarceration, as well as perspectives from a free man, the author.

Was justice served? Or was the driver the aggressor and the deacon the victim?

"Striking that, though I knew the whole story and its conclusion, I remained riveted and completed 200 pages in two sittings. Interesting how self defense can be well-hidden by 'our system of justice.' Don's case is a billboard advertisement for such basic rights."
Bruce Krell, Attorney at Law, San Francisco

"How am I supposed to sleep after reading (practically in one sitting!) your book? Haunting stuff. So many layers of the unknown left to it. Good work."
David Stevenson, Director and Professor
University of Alaska Anchorage MFA Program
