Dyer’s eclectic body of writing includes a true crime biography and four more works of fiction: Greg Scarpa, Legendary Evil, Dyer’s latest release, chronicles the life of a mafia killer who, for nearly three decades, was also an FBI informant; A String of Beads, a collection of 27 short stories about growing up in a deeply dysfunctional household during the 1960s; Let Me Explain, a coming-of-age novel that draws heavily on Dyer’s adolescent years at a New England prep school; The Holy Lance, a 21st century thriller that combines espionage with a dose of fantasy; and Judging Paradise, a post-modern existential novella heavily influenced by the works of two of the author’s favorites, Albert Camus and Joseph Conrad.
