When Lawrence isn't creating on the page, he is creating in the kitchen. He believes that a well-prepared meal and a carefully-selected wine pairing is a symphony of flavors—just like the intricate clues woven through his mysteries. His characters often share his love of good food and wine, like his corpulent, discerning detective, Marko Korb.
