Fast-paced noir thriller with richly drawn characters and gritty realism.

Themes of power, addiction, justice, and redemption set against a backdrop of organized crime and moral conflict.

Now a crime boss is a suspect.

And a broken PI is the only one who can clear his name...

If he survives the truth.

Dead Ringers—A twisted thriller where no one is who they seem.

And, "Sharpe Decline," a Sam Sharpe Prequel.

Before Sam Sharpe became a private investigator, he was a drunk with a camera and a haunted past. He could live with the drinking. He could even live with the aimless surveillance gigs for the feds. What he couldn’t live with was injustice—and when a confessed child killer walks free on a technicality, Sam Sharpe’s fragile grip on morality snaps.

As Sharpe spirals into obsession, chasing a murderer the system refused to hold, he crosses a line he can’t uncross. The fallout sends him into darker territory still: a final descent into heroin, memory, and the unforgiving mirror of guilt.

Taut, gritty, and deeply human, "Sharpe Decline" is the raw origin story of one of noir fiction’s most compelling antiheroes. Fans of James Sallis’ Lew Griffin or Lawrence Block’s Matthew Scudder will find much to admire in this stark and unforgettable tale of justice gone sideways.
