W Mark Harrington is a crime thriller author and former law enforcement investigator with more than two decades of experience across the Carolinas. His work blends real police insight, Southern grit, and emotional depth, exploring what happens when justice demands more than the law can give. His Oakhaven Files series—including Demon of Oakhaven, Devil at Rocky Pointe, and Watcher’s Gambit—follows Detectives Will Anderson and Casey Murphy as they uncover murder, corruption, and the thin line between duty and obsession in small-town South Carolina. Drawing on firsthand experience from real investigations, Harrington delivers crime fiction with authenticity, conscience, and heart—stories for fans of Michael Connelly, James Patterson, Jack Carr, and John Grisham. When he’s not writing, Mark is devoted to family life. He and his wife are raising three kids—each with an “M” name—who good-naturedly tease him about “gaming” when he’s really plotting his next twist. He enjoys watching his boys play lacrosse, cheering for his daughter in dance and softball, and volunteering with their Scout troop. Now living in South Carolina, he’s embraced lake life and a small-town pace, though he still swears by his native North Carolina barbecue—that’s a noun, not a verb, y’all. Written under the Dead End Ink imprint, Harrington’s stories capture what he knows best: the weight of the badge, the cost of truth, and the quiet heroism of those who hold the line. “Twenty years in law enforcement. Countless cases. One mission: turn true grit into unforgettable crime fiction.”
