About the Author
Theodore J. Cohen, PhD, holds three degrees in the physical sciences from the University of Wisconsin - Madison and has been an engineer and scientist for more than 40 years. From December 1961 through early March 1962, he participated in the 16th Chilean Expedition to the Antarctic. His communications lifeline to the world was ham radio. At the time of the Expedition, his U.S. call sign was W9VZL; today, it is N4XX. The U.S. Board of Geographic Names in October, 1964, named the geographical feature Cohen Islands, located at 61' 18' S. latitude, 57" 53' W. longitude in the Cape Legoupil area, Antarctica, in his honor. Dr. Cohen has published more than 350 papers, articles, columns, essays, and interviews, and is co-author of the New Shortwave Propagation Handbook (from CQ Communications). His first novel, Full Circle: A Dream Denied, A Vision Fulfilled, was published by AuthorHouse in 2009.
Unfinished Business: Pursuit of an Antarctic Killer, which is Dr. Cohen's third novel (and Book II of The Antarctic Murders Trilogy), reveals another chapter in the series of events that unfolded between March 1962 and March 1965 following the robbery of the Banco Central de Chile in Talcahuano in May, 1960. The robbery and events that followed, primarily the events that took place between May 1960 and March 1962, are described in his second novel, Frozen in Time: Murder at the Bottom of the World (Book I of the Antarctic Murders Trilogy).
