Kevin Joseph is a retired attorney with a passion for writing thought-provoking thrillers. His first novel, The Champion Maker, explores legal and ethical issues at the intersection of genetic engineering and athletics. Praised as “a genuine thriller” by the Midwest Book Review, The Champion Maker was a finalist for the 2006 Benjamin Franklin Award (Best New Voice, Fiction). Kevin’s second novel, the sci-fi thriller Perpetuity, was selected as a 2024 Claymore Award Finalist and a 2024 Page Turner Awards Finalist. Perpetuity was published by Holand Press in August 2025, and the cover blurb from author Peter Colt described it as "a riveting thriller that will have you hooked from the first page to the last." In May 2026, a prequel to Perpetuity, titled On Edge, was published by Aspects of Crime in Watching the Detectives (a collection of short crime fiction).
