Link to Frieden's travel blog:

A.C. Frieden is passionate about his literary research as he seeks to bring as much realism and authority to his novels. Today, you’ll often find him in a far-flung hotspot researching his future mysteries and thrillers, like his recent investigative travels to North Korea, Russia, Cuba, China, Qatar, and India. He has faced the chaos of a Central American coup, piloted small planes over the Andes and the Panama Canal, explored remote underwater sites in the Indian Ocean, surveyed the damaged Chernobyl nuclear power plant, followed the Che Guevara trail in Bolivia, tracked down drug traffickers in Paraguay, explored former Soviet and U.S. missile bases, roamed the streets of North Korea's capital, and much more across nearly 80 countries. He also has used his scuba training, pilot's license and former military experience to enhance his research. The following are some recent articles about A.C. Frieden’s research:
