The Couple in Room 13 (2010)
The Cold Kiss

John Rector
"Tense, taut, throat-grabbing. John Rector is far more accomplished than his years. Reads like a cross between NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN and DELIVERANCE. Terrific."
thumb
Free Agent (2009)
(Paul Dark Trilogy , book 1)
Jeremy Duns
"Terse, sardonic, and knowing, Free Agent is a take-no-prisoners exploration of loyalty, duplicity and love. I dare anyone to put this book down after reading the first electrifying chapter."
thumb
To Ride Hell's Chasm (2002)
Janny Wurts
"Like the best of J R R Tolkein and Frank Herbert. Ms Wurts' words are bursting with the Primal Force; brimming with unforgettable characters, infused with magic both dark and glorious."
