Bio

I'm a former CIA Officer, retired from the Directorate of Digital Innovation (DDI). That's as deep as I go on a resume. Or here. I write spy thrillers because that's where I worked. And out of respect and envy for Case Officers, and everyone else in the DO (Directorate of Operations). The DO are the "fighter pilots” of the CIA. I was Air Force, but not a fighter pilot.

I live in an old fishing village in coastal, North Carolina. I sleep late, I fly, I write; I have a big dog and a small house. I'm a decent cook and a lousy gardener. And Tom DeGeorge is my true name. I miss the people, the work, and the atmosphere at CIA. No one I know misses the stress, frustration, and the long line at the OHB Starbucks.
