Check out my hardboiled crime story

My first venture to the dark side of short fiction is in the current issue of Switchblade: An Anthology of Noir.  Let me take you to the seamier side of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania where we watch a wager with life-or-death stakes play out in “Organ Trade Off”.

Switchblade: An Anthology of Noir

 

The editor promises you’ll find fourteen stories that are “twisted and barbed like your ex; sharp and deadly like the femme fatale you know you can’t resist—it ain’t your grandma’s Ellery Queen.”

You can buy Switchblade in paperback or as an ebook from Amazon.

Seven years ago, a high-end private security company hired Bella Hinton to stop their bodyguards murdering innocent bystanders while protecting diplomats abroad.

A career security pro, Bella was keeping Americans safe before most of those guards were born. She cleaned house at the company and changed the cowboy culture.

But now, a new team has taken over in Washington. Diplomacy is out. Mercenary armies are the new profit center for the greedheads in charge. And Bella’s in their way.

She survived the incident last year in Dhaka. But has she got what it takes to make it out of DC alive?

Travel the world in great short fiction!

Travel to Poland in 1984 and again in 2013 led me to write “Blown”, an FBI Special Agent Dawna Shepherd short mystery. “Blown” is one of fourteen stories in Fiction River Presents: Writers Without Borders. The anthology crosses the border (and sometimes the galaxy) from a look into the Canadian side of World War II to the streets of London’s East End to worlds altogether alien. Writers Without Borders offers up international perspectives from Fiction River authors living outside the US and spans genre lines from historical mystery to fantasy to science fiction. Click on the cover below to reach an ebook retail outlet offering this entertaining short story collection for sale in your area.
