WELCOME

Welcome

Dear Reader....

For the most part, I write mystery novels. Across the seventeen books I have published, I have created three series that each explore a different corner of the mystery genre.


The Dr. Kaili Worthy Series

If you love archaeology, history, and mystery, this series may be for you. Have you ever wondered whether we disturb the peace of those we unearth in the name of scientific research? Archaeologist Dr. Kaili Worthy makes a discovery that may finally answer that question, but some secrets buried in the past are not meant to stay hidden.


The Shaws Investigation Series

Keri and Jade Shaw are a married couple who become private investigators after Keri discovers a 1909 confession letter from a serial killer no one knew existed. What begins as a single cold case soon turns into something much larger. With each investigation, the danger grows more personal as the cases draw closer and closer to home.


The Kutter Murder Mystery Series

Orson Kutter is a bestselling crime novelist whose life is turned upside down when he is accused of a series of murders he did not commit. The problem? He wrote about the crimes years before they happened. As investigators close in and the body count rises, Kutter must uncover the truth before he becomes the next victim of a story he never intended to tell.

Happy reading!

Everyone is talking

Some tremors shake the ground. Others destroy lives.


Something is stirring beneath the surface.

For months, readers have speculated, clues have been hidden, and a new darkness has been taking shape in the shadows of the Kutter Murder Mystery Series. Today, the wait is over.


I am thrilled to reveal the official cover for Internal Tremor, the highly anticipated third installment in the award-winning series.


A chilling mystery. A mind pushed to its limits. A danger that cannot be seen until it is far too late.


Before the first page is turned, before the first clue is discovered, the cover offers a glimpse of the psychological tension and deadly secrets that await inside.


Be among the first to see the cover and step into the unsettling world of Internal Tremor.


The tremor begins now.

BOOK 5

The Shaws Investigation Mysteries Continue

If you’ve fallen in love with this award-winning series, prepare yourself - because the next chapter dives even deeper into mystery, with twists you won’t see coming & turns that will keep you guessing until the very end.
