This week we celebrate not only Independence Day, but this new Amazon review for Psycho-Tropics:As to whether I’ve “been toiling away on a new near-masterpiece,” I’ve certainly been toiling away. The first book in the Emily Calby Series, The Hiding Girl, will be out soon, and book two is finished, along with a good portion of book three. An early unpublished version of The Hiding Girl was a semifinalist for the 2017 Publisher’s Weekly Booklife Prize, the only unpublished manuscript to be selected. Check out the Critic’s Report.
2015 Writer's Digest Award Winner in Genre Fiction
A high school reunion in a South Florida town unburies the past (literally), launching a lottery-winning surfer with a terrible secret on a twisted race through the Sunshine State to save a missing woman, and his soul. Heart and dark humor combine with manic action and plot twists in this unhinged tale of revenge and redemption, where everyone has something to hide and nothing is what it seems.Latest Posts
