Cliff Jackman draws readers deep inside The Black Box, into an intriguing mystery in which a Toronto teenager deemed to have committed suicide is instead a possible homicide victim whose love for comic books and a Russian prostitute lead into a murky world of forgery, deception and murder. Jackman breathes life into his characters, making you feel as if you truly know them. The author is a major literary find whose debut book, Deeper, a collection of short stories, fascinated readers and drew comparisons with Stephen King. With The Black Box, Jackman proves hes also a master of the novel, with a story that is instantly captivating and enthralling. -- Michael B Davie, author, The Late Man
Cliff Jackman first captured international attention with the 2010 release of his first book, Deeper, a critically acclaimed collection of intriguing short stories that had critics favourably comparing him to Stephen King. Jackman followed this success with the release of his widely praised debut novel, The Black Box, in 2012 and then returned to the world of short stories in 2013 with what is perhaps his finest work to date: Jackman's Cliff. Jackman was born in Deep River and raised in Ottawa. He received a Bachelor's in English from York University, a Master's in English from Queen's University, and a Bachelor of Law from Osgoode Hall Law School. The writer and practicing lawyer lives in Guelph and works in Toronto where he finds no end of inspiration for the colourful characters that populate his books.
