Chad Zunker studied journalism at The University of Texas, where he was also on the football team. He’s worked for some of the most powerful law firms in the country and invented baby products that are now sold all over the world. He has wanted to write full time since he took his first practice hit as a skinny freshman walk-on from a 6’5, 240 pound senior All-American safety — which crushed both him and his feeble NFL dreams. He lives in Austin with his wife, Katie, and their three daughters.Zunker's new novel is Hunt The Lion, the third Sam Callahan thriller.
Here the author dreamcasts the lead in an adaptation of the series:
My protoganist, Sam Callahan, has been described as Good Will Hunting meets The Bourne Identity, both movies which starred the talented Matt Damon. I think that’s a great fit. So I guess for Hunt The Lion I would need to put Matt Damon in a time machine and take him back to his twenties to play the role!Visit Chad Zunker's website.
