Barry Mark Eisler (born 1964) is a best-selling American novelist. He is the author of two thriller series, the first featuring anti-hero John Rain, a half-Japanese, half-American former soldier turned freelance assassin, and a second featuring black operations soldier Ben Treven. Eisler also writes about politics and language on his blog Heart of the Matter, and at CHUD, Firedoglake, Huffington Post, Smirking Chimp, and Truthout. Eisler joined the CIA, where he held a covert position with the Directorate of Operations. In 1992, he resigned after becoming disillusioned. In 1994, he moved to the San Francisco area to work for a law firm's technology licensing division, then left to work in Japan for Matsushita. In 2003 he sold the rights to his debut novel, Rain Fall, the first of his series featuring John Rain. In March 2011, he walked away from a reported half million dollar advance from St. Martin's Press to go the self-publishing route pioneered by Joe Konrath and others. He then agreed to publish the seventh John Rain novel, The Detachment, under Amazon Publishing's Thomas & Mercer imprint. After terminating his previous publishing contracts and regaining his rights, Eisler changed the titles and covers on all the Rain books. More

EJE Publications, Ltd. Inc., 2013. Presumed First Edition/First Printing. Trade paperback. Unpaginated. Edward Jay Epstein (born in 1935) is an American investigative journalist and a former political science professor at Harvard, UCLA, and MIT.[1][2] He taught courses at these schools for three years.[3] While a graduate student at Cornell University in 1966, he published the book Inquest, an influential critique of the Warren Commission probe into the John F. Kennedy assassination. Epstein wrote two other books about the Kennedy assassination, eventually collected in The Assassination Chronicles: Inquest, Counterplot, and Legend (1992). His books Legend (1978) and Deception (1989) drew on interviews with retired CIA Counterintelligence Chief James Jesus Angleton, and his 1982 book The Rise and Fall of Diamonds was an expose of the diamond industry and its economic impact in southern Africa.[4] After teaching at Harvard, UCLA, and MIT, Epstein decided to pursue his writing career back in New York City. In 1973, he received his Ph.D. in government from Harvard University. He did his master's thesis on the search for political truth which later became a top-selling book. More

Fabian Escalante is the author of several books, including The Secret War: CIA Covert Operations Against Cuba, 1959-62 (1995) and CIA Targets Fidel: The Secret Assassination Report (1996). In 2006 Escalante published JFK: The Cuba Files. In the book Escalante describes the conspiracy uncovered by Cuba's investigation, which reviewed declassified US files and reports from Cuban intelligence units that had infiltrated anti-Castro groups in Miami. At the time of assassination of John F. Kennedy, Escalante was head of a counterintelligence unit and was part of a team investigating a CIA operation called Sentinels of Liberty. In 1982 Escalante became a senior official in the Interior Ministry. Escalante was considered to be Cuba's leading authority on the history of CIA activities against his country. Escalante became head of the Cuban Security Studies Center in 1993. This allowed him to reexamine the assassination of John F. Kennedy. He studied all the available material and publications, consulted with former agents and operatives, and investigated all the accessible documentation.” In a Cuban television documentary broadcast on November 26, 1993, Escalante named the gunmen who killed John F. Kennedy as three Chicago mobsters (Lenny Patrick, David Yaras, and Richard Cain), and two Cuban exiles (Herminio Diaz Garcia and Eladio del Valle), but said that many in the CIA and elsewhere knew what was going to happen.
