Unleashed (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781512159141)

Author F. Mark Granato grew up in Hartford CT, graduated from Providence College then worked as a journalist before joining United Technologies Corporation. He spent the next twenty-five years of his professional life in public relations and communications, ultimately as the vice president responsible for UTC's worldwide communications and branding development efforts. He also served as Executive Assistant to the Chairman and CEO. His work required extensive international travel and the development of business relationships in emerging markets, particularly in China and Southeast Asia. Today he is retired from the corporate wars and is pursuing a life-long ambition to write fiction and especially to explore the "What if?" questions of history. Including UNLEASHED, he is the author of seven historical fiction thrillers: Out of Reach: The Day Hartford Hospital Burned; the acclaimed Vietnam-era, Finding David; the terrifying Of Winds and Rage - an historical fiction account of the Great New England Hurricane of 1938; the alternative histories Beneath His Wings: The Plot to Murder Lindbergh and Titanic: The Final Voyage; and The Barn Find, the heart wrenching saga of a New England family struggling to overcome conflict and loss after a tragedy that captured the eyes of the world. He writes from his home in Wethersfield, Connecticut with the help of a large German Shepherd named "Groban" who occasionally asks probing questions.
