Richard Helms
A lifelong North Carolinian, Richard Helms retired from active practice as a forensic psychologist in 2002, after working in the field for over two decades. At one time, he was the only court psychologist covering four counties in NC.
A court-recognized expert in sex crimes and the psychology of sex offenders, mystery writing was an easy transition and a logical next step after Helms left his professional career to become a college professor in Charlotte.

Richard Helms recommends
Crimes Against Nature (2024)
Robert Lopresti
"It isn't nice to fool Mother Nature. Sometimes she gets even. Sometimes she needs a little help. This collection from editor Robert Lopresti is chock full of ripping yarns of revenge, poetic justice, and even a few thought-provoking lessons about protecting the only world we absolutely know supports life, from an assemblage of the best short story writers in the business. Highly recommended!"
