Published Author
Michael Braa's first book, Why Jesus and Why Then: How God Prepared the World for a Perfect Man, was published in 2026 by Atlantis Private Media. Written with the discipline of an investigator — following evidence rather than confirming conclusions — it traces the documented historical chain from Greek philosophy to the Incarnation. Michael Braa, a dedicated Native American tribal investigator and private investigator in Fresno, is also developing a second book: a cold case collection that examines history's most enduring unsolved mysteries, written in the tradition of the original Strand Magazine.
