Wayne Wharton, a writer who now resides in Richmond, Virginia, grew up in the coal mining region of the Appalachian mountain range.

Wayne will be in conversation with Ted Zaleski of the Two Sides to the Story podcast. 

His first book, The Thrushkeepers, is a rare look into the hidden secrets of characters who walked and negotiated the paths of poverty. Self-written, self-edited, and self-published gives testimony to what one can accomplish, no matter the obstacles and hardships faced. An enjoyable mystery with a cadre of interesting characters will not disappoint. His latest book, Justice Looks Away, is a mystery set in coastal New England where a murderer plays a deadly game of chess with newly elected town sheriff, Sam Taylor. 

Books will be available for purchase and signing.
