(b.1949)Writing the Billy Boyle World War II mystery series (published by the wonderful folks at Soho Press) has brought me an immense amount of joy. I've gotten to meet people in person and online from all over the world and hear their reactions, feedback, and most importantly, their own stories.
In addition to the Billy Boyle series, two stand-alone books have been published by E-Reads. On Desperate Ground is a WWII thriller in the grand tradition of Jack Higgins, and Souvenir is an exploration of memory, identity, sorrow and loss during the lifetime of a veteran of the Second World War.

Murder in the Ranks (2024)
Kristi Jones
"Rife with historical detail and intrigue, Murder in the Ranks by Kristi Jones introduces Dottie Lincoln of the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps. It's a heartfelt story of crime, betrayal, and loyalty set in the early days of the Second World War in North Africa. Dottie's a keeper!"
The Mummy of Mayfair (2024)
(Irregular Detective Mystery, book 2)
Jeri Westerson
"Original, unique and inventive...pitch-perfect!."
The Man from Mittelwerk (2022)
M Z Urlocker
"From the dark caves of a Nazi slave labor complex to sunny southern California, The Man from Mittelwerk delivers on all fronts. Snappy dialog, a fast-paced narrative, and complex moral questions all combine to make this hard-boiled thriller a winner. Superb!"
