A book and author I pulled out of the slush pile in 1988.

I discovered Steven Paul Martini's debut novel THE SIMEON CHAMBER while working as director of operations at WIESER & WIESER Authors’ Representatives and Book Packagers.

It piqued my interest as a California-born archaeologist and childhood treasure hunter at Drakes Beach.

I passed the manuscript to my boss George Wieser who represented it to publisher Don Fine, who bought the book.

The author went on to become a New York Times bestselling author of legal thrillers.
