G.Z. MATHEWS SERVED FOR over four decades in international operations, commerce, defense, and government affairs, working across more than 120 countries including war zones and terrorist operating areas in Asia, Middle East, Latin America, and Eastern Europe—often where governments and gray zones meet. An aviator, engineer, and military/defense contractor, his career immersed him in the quiet intersections of power, conflict, and humanitarian consequence that shape his fiction. He brings a field operatives grounding and a novelist’s eye for human cost to every page.
