My name is Stan R. Mitchell and I write fast-paced books — no, like REALLY fast-paced books — that are gripping, compelling, and full of twists and turns (so you better buckle up for the ride of your life).

I’ve written a dozen of them to date: military thrillers, police/detective mysteries (whodunits), war literature, a Western, and even a motivational self-help book. I’ve been fortunate to have sold more than 70,000 copies, to date, so thank you if you’ve purchased one of my books!

You can find all of my books here: amazon.com.
