One Life is his first novel and will be published in Mexico in Spanish in 2016. He has been a journalist for more than twenty years, principally in the U.S. and Mexico, but also for magazines in England, Canada and Peru. When David is not writing, he works as a mitigation specialist, conducting investigations for lawyers in the U.S. who defend clients who are charged with capital murder and facing the death penalty. He is based in Mexico City.
