Dark. Real. No filler. That's the deal. I write the kind of crisp, slap-you-in-the-face fiction that blows your mind and might just make you keep the lights on. Want escapism? Fine, but don't come crying about the dog. I've kept it serial-killer real, and not every fur baby (or every Alice) makes it to the end. I'm an ex-maximum-security prison officer with years of stories from behind bars, watching the kind of monsters you assumed only existed in thriller novels.
Prison Days - 21-book true crime series, straight from the job.
Killer Unchained - a new true-crime series where the criminals remain at large.
MAX - a completed fictional prison series. Violent. Confronting. No rules.
The Lawson Chronicles - inspired by a real serial killer I watched up close. Dark enough to earn me 1-star reviews I print on t-shirts.
Grace Miller - a gentler 1960s–70s mystery series, for readers who'd rather the dog survive.
The Caretakers - a supernatural thriller series to turn your world upside-down.
Seven series. Fifty-plus books. I never stop writing, partly because I'm better with animals than people, and partly because I'm hard of hearing.
Complaints about the dog (or anything else) welcome on my website or Facebook page.
Happy reading.
