Sam Berretti was born and raised in the High Plains city of Lubbock, Texas. Cotton was king and oil wells and cattle were always close by. The land was as flat as his mother’s tattered ironing board and Spring was always ushered in with dust storms, tumble weeds and tornadoes. Sam moved to Florida to attend the University of Florida, met a woman who he says was gracious enough to allow him to marry her and raised two amazing children. Sam is an avid naturalist and photographer as well as an author. Although writing started at an early age and took many forms, mystery fiction has always been a favorite. Over the last decade, at the urging of his wife, he has ventured into writing romance mysteries, usually with a touch of the paranormal. "Double Mayhem" is his first book (Createspace, Kindle, Smashwords). Available in Ebook and paperback from a variety of outlets.
He has now added a second book, "The Black Rose," available through Amazon. Go to the official author website, www.SamBerretti.com, which provides additional information and links to book sellers.
