Ricky Middleton

Ricky Dale Middleton grew up amidst the flat, fertile grounds of Lee County, Arkansas, before moving to the Ozarks as a young adult and settling in the Batesville area. Lifelong passions for ancient history, mysteries, thrillers, and a childhood fascination with caves and dinosaurs heavily inspire his writing. Known for a good-natured sense of humor and a lifelong love for storytelling, he pours those adventures and rich regional textures directly into his pocketbook series, Beyond the Ozark Cave.
