My name is Alex Lopez, though in my books I go simply by Lopez. I’m not entirely sure why—maybe I just liked the hint of mystery behind it. I grew up in the city of Bell for almost my entire life, before eventually moving out to Riverside County. If you lived in Bell or anywhere nearby, you’d probably recognize the path I took: Woodlawn Elementary, Nimitz Junior High, and Bell High School—what I jokingly call the “trifecta.” After high school I tried my hand at college—first architecture at Harbor Community College, then later computer graphics—but neither stuck. I’ve always learned best by doing things on my own terms. What began as a job at Western Auto eventually turned into a long stretch as a salesman, right up until the company closed in 2008. From there I dove headfirst into the firearms industry, teaching myself everything from repair to full customization. Every skill I’ve picked up in my life has come from curiosity, stubbornness, and the willingness to figure things out alone. I never expected to become a writer. The original spark was a screenplay idea: an anthropology professor whose controversial theories about ancient relics get him pushed out of academia, forcing him into a life of private investigation and symbol-laden mysteries. That idea somehow transformed into a full trilogy—Veiled Truths. From there, the world opened up. I wrote the psychological spec-fic novella Interim, the cosmic-themed The Witnesses: The Fall of Eden, and recently the cartel-noir novel The Blood of the Son. Across genres, one thing ties my work together: I want to tell stories that make us pause, rethink what we know, and explore who we are in this strange existence. If even one of my books connects with you, then every step—from Bell, to Riverside, to gunsmithing, to writing—has been worth it. "A uniquely mesmerizing quality... An entertaining read that provokes thought." — Michael Thomas Barry, NY Journal of Books Contributor Veiled Truths: The Lucian Graves Mysteries Vol. 1
