Cilla McCain
About the Author
Cilla McCain has spent countless hours researching all available information about the
brutal murder of Richard Davis. She has utilized contacts within the legal community, and
continually pours over thousands of documents ranging from police statements to court
transcripts, as well as Army investigation reports. She's also reached out to psychologists
across the country who specialize in the field of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder to gain a clear
and concise understanding of its' effects and how it may or may not relate to Murder In Baker
Company.
In addition to her research within the professional community, she has also interviewed
over a hundred people, mostly Richard's fellow soldiers. These people have been able to
provide her with a well-rounded view of the environment surrounding Specialist Davis’ time in
the Army. In particular, the bloody events surrounding the invasion of Iraq. This has greatly
assisted the progress and development of Murder In Baker Company.
To Cilla, what started out to be a book chronicling a horrible crime, very early on turned into
a personal mission. She works daily with the victim's parents, Lanny and Remy Davis and has
developed a close relationship with them in the process. Helping them to start The Richard
Thomas Davis Foundation for Peace. www.richarddavisforpeace.com with which she
remains very involved.
Cilla McCain has interest in working within all genres of the literary field but has a special need
to write about the injustices of society. She’s developed fictional novels titled The Other Side
of the Tracks and Journey to Heaven, the latter of which is being adapted into
a screenplay with film maker Dawn Kuisma.
She’s also recently agreed to co-write a non-fiction book tentatively titled, The Criminals
Defense, with noted military-gang expert and lecturer Hunter Glass, believing it’s the perfect
accompaniment to her own research into the Davis murder.
Listen to me, you the ones knowing righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law. Do not be afraid of the reproach of mortal men, and do not be struck with terror just because
of their abusive words. For the moth will eat them up just as if a garment, and the clothes moth will eat them up just as if wool. But as for my righteousness, it will prove to be even
to time indefinite, and my salvation to unnumbered generations.
Isaiah 51:7,8
