John de Sousa writes supernatural thrillers, combining wide-eyed suspense with white-knuckled action. His stories dwell in that realm where the dark realities of this world collide with the heart-melting power of God.

A retired pastor on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, John also enjoys playing music on a variety of instruments, especially guitars from the local factory on Kent island. He and his wife Missy have two lovely daughters and eight grandchildren.
