My new novel 'Trick Turn' is now available on Amazon! It’s early July and across the United States, people are preparing for the upcoming Independence Day holiday.

Each one is 30,000 words long and are the 1st half of 6 stories in total coming out in the next six months. Hendricks, Marquez and Ledger are the 1st trio, followed by Archer, Chalky and Vargas, and each story is a prequel.
