Bestselling author and South Carolinian Boo Walker initially tapped his creative muse as a songwriter and banjoist in Nashville, but a career-ending hand problem sent him scrambling to find another creative outlet. After a stint as a day trader in Charleston, he headed west to Washington State, where he bought a gentleman’s farm on Red Mountain, a small wine-growing region in the desert. 

It was there among the grapevines and wine barrels that he found his voice telling high-impact stories that now resonate with book clubs worldwide. His novels, rich with colorful characters and boundless soul, will leave you with an open heart and lifted spirit.

Always a wanderer, Boo has lived in South Carolina, Tennessee, Florida, Washington State, New York, and Valencia, Spain. He now resides in Cape Elizabeth, Maine with his wife, son, and two troublemaking dogs. He also writes thrillers under the pen name Benjamin Blackmore.
