Ant Farm (Seamus McCree #1)
Botulism as a murder weapon. A hit man who calls himself the Happy Reaper. Villains who will stop at nothing to keep their secrets.
In this page-turner, we meet Seamus McCree, a single father who wants to fight for the little guy against those who abuse their power.
Enter the hero
When police can’t figure out why someone murdered thirty-eight retirees at a Labor Day picnic, they ask Seamus, a financial crimes consultant, to follow the money. He's anxious to move from behind his computer to the front lines to help investigators ask the right questions.
Those in power fight back
As Seamus untangles a web of financial chicanery, those threatened place a target on his back.
And there are consequences
He’s willing to risk his own life to bring justice, but when his actions place his son in danger, Seamus must overcome his deepest fears.
A protagonist in the tradition of Robert B. Parker, John Sandford, and William Kent Krueger, Seamus is a good guy willing to pay a price to bring justice to the world.
Bad Policy (Seamus McCree #2)
Seamus McCree is in hot water. Again.
It’s the first “IRA six pack” since the 1970s and The Troubles in Northern Ireland.
In this second book in the Seamus McCree series, he returns home to discover his house has become a crime scene. The murder victim posed in his basement is an acquaintance who endured the six pack: bullets to his ankles, knees, and elbows.
Forced to prove his innocence, Seamus uncovers a twisted trail that leads back to his Boston roots. He’s stunned to learn the truth about his father’s death and the resulting divorce of Boston’s Irish mafia and the Provisional IRA.
The more Seamus digs for the truth, the more his life unravels. As the body count climbs, all trails lead back to him, forcing Seamus underground to smoke out who is framing him — and why — before he becomes the next victim.
Cabin Fever (Seamus McCree #3)
He wanted rest and relaxation. What he got was a mystery woman suffering from hypothermia, frostbite, high fevers, amnesia—and rope burns on her wrists and ankles.
With his house in Cincinnati in ruins, financial crimes investigator Seamus McCree retreats to the family cabin for some well-earned rest and relaxation. His plans for a quiet, contemplative winter in the wilds of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula are destroyed when he discovers a naked, unconscious woman on his porch during a blizzard.
Snowbound at the cabin, without transportation or phone coverage, Seamus struggles to keep the woman alive and find a way to get an SOS message out. What he doesn’t know is that a domestic paramilitary organization dedicated to overthrowing the government is hunting for an escaped female prisoner—and closing in on his isolated refuge.
