ⓘ About Jay MacLarty

By the time he turned thirty, he had owned liquor stores, restaurants, and nightclubs, before founding a software company and a string of retail stores. Jay also wrote one of the first computerized handicapping programs for thoroughbred racing. Jay, who was always an avid reader, finally turned his attention to the written word, working nights and weekends on a sweeping and lengthy ethnic saga. The manuscript was reviewed well, however judge too literary and long for a first-time novelist, and he was told he should go write the popular novel first. That book wound up becoming “The Courier”, the first in a series of books starring Simon Leonidovich, a common-man hero. It is a high-tech thriller that draws on MacLarty’s unique background of politics, high-tech, and business.
