Following a successful career as a biotechnology scientist and executive who holds a doctoral degree in microbiology, Thomas Reilly turned to writing novels focusing on suspense, medical drama and magical realism. His first novel, CHASING TIME, winner of a Literary Titan Gold Medal Award, is a suspenseful mix of contemporary fiction and fantasy. His second book in the series, TRIAL AND REDEMPTION, continues the saga of a mystical Janus key and its time-bending influence on modern day characters. He lives in Wilmington, Delaware with his wife Linda and three cats.
