Author Information
David W. Barber is a longtime newspaper journalist, musician, composer and the internationally bestselling author of Bach, Beethoven and the Boys; Getting a Handel on Messiah; Bach, Beethoven and the Grrrls; Bach, Beethoven for Kids and nearly a score of other books of humorous classical music history and literature, including the speculative fiction collection Atonement and other stories. Hotshot is his third Dugan Heywood mystery novel, following on the heels of Hedshot and Mugshot. In a varied career, among David's more interesting jobs have been short stints as a roadie for Pope John Paul II, a publicist for Prince Rainier of Monaco and a backup singer for Avril Lavigne. He learned (though not very successfully) transcendental meditation from the same maharishi who taught The Beatles.
