About the Author

Joseph A. McCaffrey isn’t a classics professor.  He’s not a P.I. either.  But he is a professor of philosophy at St. Ambrose University in Davenport, Iowa.  Sometime back he was proposed a job not unlike that which his protagonist, Bertrand McAbee, was offered and accepted.  The fictional McAbee stories are explorations of roads untaken.  Other McAbee adventures include Cassies Ruler, Confessional Matters, The Pony Circus Wagon, and Scholarly Executions.
