Works in Progress
The first draft of Penitence, a near-future post-apocalyptic tale about a world in which psychoactive biological agents have run amok, is finally done! Revision (and revision and revision) is in progress. I hope to release it sometime in 2024.
Rooftop Sonata (Bernard and Melody Caper #2) is now in progress. I hope to release this one in late 2024.
A few months before she passed away, my late wife Kathleen gave me some material for Howard County Mystery #5. I don’t have a title or even a plot for it yet, just an idea, but it will materialize in due course.
