"Jack" Flanagan is a retired high school teacher from Long Island, New York. His childhood memories of his family trips through New England and his visits to his uncle, the chief of police of Bennington, Vermont served as inspiration for his second novel, THE THIRD MURDERER.

“She has a particular penchant for mentally noting how much I drink, how much I eat, how much exercise I get, and the like. These specifics all fall within her purview. So in truth, I don’t remember how much I drink; it's not my job.”
Jack Flanagan, The Third Murderer

“His largeness lorded over his chair like a giant unripened pumpkin rolling onto an egg cup.”
Jack Flanagan, The Third Murderer

“Always remember, what would appear to be a coincidence in a novel was contrived by an author, and a coincidence in life is nothing more but the collision of someone’s life story with unstoppable natural forces following their logical paths.”
Jack Flanagan, The Third Murderer

“I know. You know I know. I know you know I know. We know Henry knows, and Henry knows we know it. We're a knowledgeable family.”
James Goldman, The Lion in Winter

“His largeness lorded over his chair like a giant unripened pumpkin rolling onto an egg cup.”
Jack Flanagan, The Third Murderer

“It is never too late to be what you might have been.”
George Eliot

“Don't bow down to critics who have not themselves written great masterpieces.”
Lawrence Ferlinghetti, City Lights Pocket Poets Anthology

“She has a particular penchant for mentally noting how much I drink, how much I eat, how much exercise I get, and the like. These specifics all fall within her purview. So in truth, I don’t remember how much I drink; it's not my job.”
