During his career in the dental industry, Peter Pontsa authored numerous techno-clinical articles published in various dental journals and served as an associate publisher for a denturist magazine.
After retiring, Peter turned his focus to creative writing, completing an Advanced Fiction Writing course at the University of Waterloo. He is a member of the Crime Writers of Canada and the Simcoe Arts council.
Peter is the author of the William Fox Adventure Series. The first book, Outfoxed, was released in January 2023, followed by Sanctity of Freedom in March 2025.
An avid British sports car enthusiast, Peter spent two seasons racing with Jagged Edge Motorsports. He is also a former president of the Headwaters British Car Club and holds a second-degree black belt in taekwondo. These passions bring authenticity and excitement to his high-octane car chases and fight scenes.
Peter lives in Loretto, Ontario, with his wife, author Angela van Breemen, and their orange tabby, Mr. Tee.
My characters, Mi Cha and Ho Jin, undergo rehabilitation and guidance through the Hanawon Settlement Support Center, an organization funded by the South Korean Ministry of Unification. Hanawon’s mission—to help North Korean refugees adapt to life in a free society with compassion and dignity—reflects a powerful vision of hope and humanity that runs throughout the story.
I have a slide presentation available to provide insight to people about what these refugees encounter. I believe it's important for the world to understand the issues these brave people faced - leaving their home and looking for a better future in South Korea.
