Rake Smith was born somewhere outside Ingalls, Oklahoma in the 1960s or 70s. He can do most anything (and often does), but, at the moment, he happens to be independently wealthy and on the lam from several local, state, and federal police agencies. Despite having only an eighth grade education, he is more intelligent than all the genius-filled think tanks combined and happy to prove it, whenever, wherever. Though this is his first book, he plans to write many more, all of which will be about his ownself. He currently lives wherever he pleases. Rake Smith looks good 100% of the time.
