Biography

Starmer was born in northern California and raised in suburban Syracuse, New York, where he graduated from Fayetteville–Manlius High School.[5] He received a B.A. degree from Drew University and a Master of Arts degree from New York University. A longtime resident of Hoboken, New Jersey, he now lives in a former schoolhouse in northern Vermont with his wife and daughter.[6]

Reception

The Wall Street Journal named The Riverman, the first book of the Riverman Trilogy, one of the best books of 2014.[7] Brian Truitt, writing for USA Today, gave Spontaneous 3 out of 4 stars, writing that "...Starmer’s originality and well-paced plot give needed life to a story filled with random death."[8]

A Publishers Weekly reviewer lauded that Stramer, through Meme, "crafts a neo-noir-flavored revenge thriller that stabs at the heart of 21st-century isolation".[9][10]
