Karma Tweak Paperback - 2002

Born in India, the land of snake charmers and computer specialists, the author led a typical middle-class childhood, filled with yearning for distant lands and adventure, fueled by a tremendous passion for reading action-packed novels.

Many were the times that his teachers caught him reading paperbacks illicitly hidden within textbooks while pretending to be immersed in homework. They confiscated his precious hoard of literature - Alistair MacLean, Fredrick Forsyth, Jack Higgins, Michael Crichton, James Hadley Chase, Harold Robbins, Erle Stanley Gardner, Clive Cussler and Ian Fleming to name a few!

While India molded the early years of his life, dazzling him with vibrant colors, tantalizing aromas and a zest for variety while bestowing upon him a Bachelors degree in Electronics engineering; the exotic land of his books came truly alive when he landed in the United States, a country which provided him with sophisticated beauty, awesome opportunities, a Master's degree in Engineering, and a career as a telecommunications engineer garnished with five US patents.

Blessed with this bipolar background he set about creating a novel which blends action, adventure, science and differing cultures in an attempt to cross-pollinate views between Indians and Americans through popular fiction.

Now an American citizen settled in a suburb of Atlanta, the author is married to a wonderful wife, and has two precious daughters, one who attends the Georgia Institute of Technology while the other shines in a middle school nearby. He enjoys building electronic gadgets, networking with local writers and enjoying life in friendly Georgia.
