Ashland, OR (PRWEB) August 22, 2013

Author and retired San Diego police lieutenant T. B. Smith talks with Downpour.com about his latest Luke Jones novel, “A Fellow of Infinite Jest.” Smith shares in this interview with Downpour how his twenty-seven-year career as a police officer led into writing and became the basis for main character Luke Jones. He gives insight into the storyline and the impact of real life events that cross over into his writing. “A Fellow of Infinite Jest” is book two in the Luke Jones series, which follows a cop from rookie to retirement, and Smith discusses with Downpour the importance of character development in his series. The audio format of “A Fellow of Infinite Jest” will be published by Blackstone Audio, Inc., and available in early 2014 on Downpour.com.

“T. B. Smith talks candidly about the gritty reality he writes of in his novels, sharing a window into his real life as a cop,” said Charity McGregor, Downpour.com Publicist. “His stories are from an insider perspective and they really resonate with people, especially those working in law enforcement—garnering rave reviews.” Smith also shares his influences, love of Shakespeare and his enjoyment of audiobooks in this interview conducted by award-winning narrator Malcolm Hillgartner.

“We are very excited to have ‘A Fellow of Infinite Jest’ available on Downpour.com and we have been working with Smith’s publicity and marketing team to offer a great deal associated with the first book in the Luke Jones series via Downpour.com,” said Jay Tapp, Blackstone’s Head of US Marketing.

“A Fellow of Infinite Jest” picks up with unconventional police rookie Luke Jones back at work. His latest challenge: San Diego’s citizens are reeling from a plane crash that resulted in the deaths of 144 people. Now disaster lurks in two parts of the city, and Luke must choose which situation needs his attention first. One could cost him the life of a friend. The other could get him fired—or killed.

“A Fellow of Infinite Jest,” by T. B. Smith, will be available in early 2014 on Blackstone’s retail site, Downpour.com.
