Chris is a 1997 graduate of Niagara High School in NIagara, Wisconsin, the location for the early portion of his book: Incarceration. While Niagara still remains a large inspiration for many of his stories, Chris has since moved to Houghton, Michigan, where he lives with his four children William, Alice, Elizabeth (Lizzie), and Raymond, as well as his girlfriend, Samantha. Chris is currently hard at work on future books about schools, vacations, crime, football, and the second Death Has Come book.
