Bill Locke

Bill Locke is a technology professional, private pilot, and author. Throughout his career, he has written on technical subjects, but The Black Net Protocol is his first novel.

Drawing on a lifelong interest in technology, aviation, preparedness, and the systems that quietly shape modern life, Bill combines real-world technical concepts with high-stakes storytelling to explore what happens when those systems fail.

A licensed private pilot and former owner of a Piper Cherokee Six, Bill brings an appreciation for aviation and practical problem-solving to his writing. His fiction is driven by ordinary people facing extraordinary circumstances and the choices they make when the world changes around them.

Bill is the author of The Black Net Protocol, After the Second Sun, and Echo Recon.
