Over the course of his life, William Sirls has experienced both great highs and tremendous lows--some born of chance, some born of choice. Once a senior vice president at a major investment firm, he was incarcerated in 2007 for wire fraud and money laundering, where he learned a great deal more than he ever bargained for. Life lessons involving faith, grace, patience, and forgiveness are evident in his writing. He is the father of two and makes his home in southern California.
"The Crown Lord, besides being a boldly written political thriller,
is an important reflection on the genesis of racial animus in
America. William Sirls has created a new optic on prejudice and
bigotry and their relationship to power, economics, and human ego.
Everyone who has unanswered questions and unaddressed concerns
about racial equity must read this thrilling novel."
--Louis Gossett Jr., Academy Award winner, and author of An Actor
and a Gentleman "This is a book that will keep readers on the edge
of their seats and wanting more."
--San Francisco Book Review "An 'alternate universe' what if novel,
The Crown Lord is the kind of dystopian novel that is as thoughtful
and thought-provoking as it is engaging and entertaining..."
--Midwest Book Review "At a time when racial tensions continue to
be stoked for political gain, we need books like The Crown Lord
more than ever: to ask hard questions, to encourage reflection, and
to remind us of our similarities."
--Seattle Book Review
