David Stockar writes page-turner mysteries and thrillers with a spiritual-mystical touch. He is the author of Eden Crossing, Adeline's Garden and Visits With Mary. With reviewer ratings averaging 4.8 of 5, his novels have been praised by readers and critics alike for their literary quality, creativity, original plots and relatable characters.
In his non-writing career, he is a leadership and change management consultant who has counseled numerous global and Fortune 500 companies across dozens of countries and industries. This experience and knowledge appears in his novels as the occasional prudent insight in the otherwise spirited dialogue of his characters.
A citizen of the US and the EU, he was born in Prague, escaped Communism as a child, and settled in Pennsylvania where he lives with his wife, children and one very spoiled dog. His passions are his family, travel, geology, nature, teaching and consulting to make a better-kinder world, perfecting pizza making, creative cooking, and, of course, writing.
