I am a lawyer, writer of mystery novels available on Amazon called THE BURNING MAN, FIRESTORM, DYING DECLARATION and BOMB BLAST. I have also completed my first horror novel, called FIONA'S BOX which will be released this year. I am currently working on the fifth novel in the Dr. Catherine (Cat) Powers thriller/mystery series, called BLIND INJUSTICE. In it, Cat will be faced with corruption within the FBI that leave multiple FBI agents dead - killed execution style - with no clues or evidence left at the scene of each murder. As Cat investigates further, she leans that the murdered agents were leading double lives of crime, which also implicate their family and loved ones. In the end, Cat must face an ultimate truth that will rock her to her core and make her question many things in her professional life.
I am also currently working on a collaboration of new PI novels with an American Private Investigator, Frank McKinnon. The Peter Gray Mystery series will feature lead private investigator, Peter Gray, as he takes on new cases in the US and around in the world. In the first novel, NO LONGER SAFE, Peter is charged with locating a wealthy Newport Beach, California teenager, Amy Jones, who has been kidnapped and sex trafficked across the border in Mexico. Jones' family is desperate to find her and will pay anything. Money is no object. As Peter and his team track the kidnap victim to Mexico City, they find she is in the clutches of the dangerous Tijuana Cartel. Peter must rescue her and being her home safe. As the plot continues, readers learn that Amy is not as innocent as she seems, and is more caught up cartel's crimes than they could have imagined.
I am at work on the second novel in this series, called MIRRORS OF DECEPTION. In this novel, readers will be introduced to the newest member of Peter's team, Isabelle Martin, a beautiful bright, ex model who speaks 7 languages. As she is trained in the the ways of PI, Peter starts to see her as an asset to the team, and not a hinderance. Isabelle and Peter's right hand man, Enrique, embark on her first case, to uncover a theft ring aboard a cruise liner under Peter's supervision. Little does Peter know that Isabelle is the cousin of Amy Jones, and her secret agenda is to uncover what happened to Amy in Mexico.
