After leaving Indonesia, Dekker graduated from high school and took up permanent residence in the United States to study philosophy and religion. Upon earning his bachelor's degree, he entered the corporate world.
In the early nineties Dekker turned to writing novels. Over the course of three years he wrote two full-length novels before starting from scratch and rewriting both. He sold his business, moved his family to the mountains of Western Colorado and began writing full-time on his third novel. Two years and three novels later his first novel was published. To date he has written over 30 novels and is best known for psychological thrillers and fantasy tales that dive deep into the human psyche.

The oldest of his four children, and first daughter Rachel Dekker is also a writer. Dekker spends some of his time helping his daughter publish her fiction, but otherwise has stopped writing novels, with nothing new planned for the foreseeable future.
