Robert T “Bob” Liter (1923-2008) was raised in Des Moines, IA. Bob was a U.S. Navy veteran and was honorably discharged after two tours of duty, one tour in World War II and the other tour in the Korean War. A graduate of Drake University in Des Moines, IA, earned his journalism degree and married Lillian in 1950. What Happened Next? I came along 9 months later; my name is Martie. My sister Jeannie and two brothers, Jeff and Ron, were soon added to the family. Later in Dad’s journalism career, he worked as a copy editor for the Peoria Journal Star, Peoria, IL, until his retirement. Through the years, he enjoyed a sideline career, writing. His seventy-two short stories were published in various True Confession magazines. When Dad retired to care for Mom, he continued pursuing his writing passion. His manuscripts have been available since 2002 in eBook format. His five novels in the Nick Bancroft Mystery series are available now in ebook, paperback, and audible format. I am honored to introduce new readers to the Bancroft Mysteries, where the character Nick Bancroft resembles my dad with his wit and bodacious gutsy approach to life. Then there is Nick’s on-again-off-again lady, Maggie Atley, who is just like Mom in the charming way she deals with a self-proclaimed “male chauvinist piggy.” While Nick solves mysteries in the fictitious but very real community of Centrel City, IL, he still finds time for his love-hate relationship with bowling and his avid undying passion for the Chicago Cubs and Bears.
