Robert Banfelder is the author of No Stranger Than I, reviewed as a “brilliant psychological thriller.” His Justin Barnes novels, The Author and The Teacher, received Best Suspense Novel awards in 2006 and 2007. Robert taught college English for over a decade and was an investigative reporter for Towers News on Long Island, writing articles and editorials concerning our criminal justice system. Robert worked tirelessly-along with journalist Mike Taibbi of CBS News and attorney Mark Baker of Barry Slotnick’s office-in the successful release of an innocent young man from prison. As part of his extensive research, Robert attended the fifteen-month trial of serial killer Robert Shulman, Riverhead, Long Island-the first death penalty case on Long Island (1999), in almost a quarter of a century.
