In the program's second half, Phil welcomes International best-selling author Don Winslow.  Winslow will be a featured guest on the National Writers Series stage on Sunday, April 7, in Traverse City. Winslow will be interviewed by guest host, co-founder of the National Writers Series, and New York Times best-selling author Doug Stanton as Winslow tells the story of his newest book, City in Ruins–the explosive conclusion of his epic Danny Ryan trilogy. Although it follows City on Fire and City of Dreams, you can read the three novels in any order, according to Winslow.  Beyond being a bestselling author, Winslow is a former investigator, anti-terrorist trainer, and trial consultant. Winslow recently announced that City in Ruins will be the final novel of his extraordinary career.
