Vengeance Is Mine is the story of the Calloway brothers, William and Samuel. As young boys, they idolized their father, who served his country in the Marine Corps. Thomas Calloway was a standout student and football player for the Crimson of Harvard University. He became a distinguished lawyer and married the love of his life. He provided a sturdy foundation for his two boys to follow in his footsteps. William is brilliant like his father, with an I.Q. of 170, while Samuel is hot-tempered like his mom but loyal to a fault. William is the older brother, attending Harvard and studying law just like his father.Upon graduation from college, Samuel is now old enough to enlist, and the boys do so together. They see plenty of combat, and along the way, they are both changed by the brutality of war. True horror is what one human being can do to another. When their tour of duty is over, William decides he wants to make a difference in the world and forgoes his law practice to submit his application to the FBI. His military background, high I.Q., and law degree make him a great fit for the bureau. Samuel is content to open up an exotic knife shop in his hometown of Warm Springs, Virginia. It doesn't take William long to realize that red tape and politics get in the way of actual justice. Frustrated, suspended, and near losing his job, he has a talk with Samuel one day about how justice would work in their world. Samuel is reluctant to get involved at first but agrees to keep an eye on a suspect who has eluded the law so far, a suspect William knows is guilty but can't prove. Samuel follows the suspect and catches him in the act of committing a horrible crime against an innocent child. What follows is one man's definition of justice.

Autorenporträt
I am not good at talking about myself, I had hoped to remain anonymous throughout this process but I must open up a little. I am the product of a hard working Italian family from a small town in Pennsylvania. My father ran a bakery and my mother was a housewife, both things are obsolete today. I was not exceptional at anything as a youngster except getting into trouble. I continued that trend as an adult with two failed marriages and countless meaningless jobs. I wrote my first short story when I was 16, entitled The Gunner. It was about five pages long and very poorly written. Handwritten on paper no less. I never showed it to anyone. It's not that I was ashamed of writing, it was that I knew no one would be interested. After my second failed marriage I began writing again and this time I took it more seriously. A lifetime of mistakes and heartache gave me all the inspiration I needed. My first book, Tales From Behind Your Wall Of Dreams came at a time when I was at my lowest, the death of my son Dante. I submitted the short stories I wrote many years ago, when he was an infant. I stopped caring about everything but writing. I am retired now and still trying to figure things out, hopefully writing will continue to bring me some form of peace. I hope you enjoy Vengeance Is Mine. I have several new projects in the works including a modern version of my first short story, The Gunner, about a third generation psychopath that terrorizes his neighborhood until a young man, new to the area, is forced to stand up to him. I also have a story entitled, Damien, in the works. It is the story of a military trained assassin that works for the government. He is contracted to eliminate high profile criminals such as drug lords, human traffickers, leaders of third world countries and even serial killers that have evaded the law long enough. Thank you for reading Vengeance Is Mine.
