Kyle is a U.S. Navy veteran who now flies the Airbus A320 family for a major U.S. carrier.

Unknown Sky, his debut, is the first novel in the Cole Shepherd series. It began as a simple question on a long overnight flight to Anchorage: what would a crew actually do if the world ended somewhere between top of climb and top of descent?

Before the airlines, Kyle served in the U.S. Navy, an experience that shaped Cole Shepherd's former life as a submarine XO and gives the novel's operational detail the weight of things actually witnessed rather than researched. Readers who care whether the fuel numbers close, the checklist flows are right, and the airport diagrams match the real thing will find Kyle takes that as seriously as they do.

He writes in the tradition of Jack Carr, Marc Cameron, and Tom Clancy, with a Cormac McCarthy undertone that runs beneath the technical surface. Unknown Sky is ultimately a book about a man who needed the end of the world to remember why he wanted to be in it.

Kyle lives in Arkansas with his family. Book 2 is underway, picking up in the deep winter of a town at capacity and reaching its breaking point.
