Quentin Casey is an author and journalist from Nova Scotia, whose writings have appeared in Reader's Digest, The Financial Post, and many other publications. In this episode, Quentin speaks about his newest book, titled Net Worth: John Risley, Clearwater, and the Building of a Billion-Dollar Empire. He explains why he chose to focus his book on East Coast billionaire John Risley, what inspirations he took from him, and the trials and tribulations of actually getting an interview with the man. He speaks to the difficulty of getting people to trust a journalist, and how he built that trust among Risley and his family & friends.
Having launched in June 2023, Net Worth is Quentin's third full-length book. He also released Joshua Slocum: The Captain who Sailed Around the World in 2014 and The Sea Was in Their Blood: The Disappearance of the Miss Ally's Five-Man Crew in 2017.
