Gordon Carroll

Gordon Carroll was a literary fiction author who grew up in a small town overlooking the majestic Rocky Mountains of Colorado. As an eighteen-year-old, he joined the Marine Corps, serving for more than seven years and rising to the rank of staff sergeant. He then transitioned from the military to law enforcement, becoming a sheriff’s deputy in a tight-knit community in Denver, Colorado. His affinity for dogs soon led him to become a K9 handler and trainer. Over a span of twenty years, he trained three dogs: Thor, a 56-pound Belgian Malinois, JR, a 120-pound German shepherd, and Max, a 90-pound Belgian Malinois. Gordon and his dogs have actively assisted the FBI, the DEA, and various federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies in the apprehension of criminals and detection of narcotics. He has been happily married for more than three decades to his high school sweetheart, and together they have four children.
