Because DeMille writes his novels longhand on legal pads with a pencil, and because of all the research he normally injects into each novel, it normally takes the author an estimated 16 months to produce a book. The author has a preference for Long Island as a setting in his novels, probably because of how long he has lived there. If you have read his books, you will notice that most of them have a lot of sarcasm and dry humor.Īdditionally, DeMille’s books almost always end inconclusively, leaving a lot of loose threads for the reader to think about. As such, his works are not that hard to follow because his plot lines are normally very linear. Nelson DeMille’s first Major novel (By the Rivers of Babylon) was published in 1978 since then, he has written numerous detective and mystery novels all of which are still in print. DeMille eventually returned to Hofstra University and received his degree in Political Science and history.
