If you want to see all my books, go here. It lists both fiction and nonfiction books.

The above (Promises Kept), is a novella, as is Finding Family. They are only about 75-80 pages long. The rest of the mysteries are full length. The books on this page are my mysteries only. For a full list, including non-fiction books, see the ‘books’ menu. Links to buy any of them are at the top of that page.

Old Wounds is the newest mystery release. It is part of the Redemption Series, and features Gino Cataldi, but this time he’s partnered up with Tip Denton.

Here’s a sneak peek.

Gino Cataldi loved three things: his wife, his son, and his job as a cop. Cancer took his wife. Drugs have his son. And Gino is pulling desk duty, suspected of killing a drug dealer.

Every night he dreams of a chance to make things right. That chance comes when a high-society woman is brutally murdered, her body parts spread all over town. The investigation quickly hits a dead-end…until a late-night caller with too much information contacts Gino. Between the mystery surrounding what she knows and his penchant for helping women in trouble, more than Gino’s curiosity is aroused. He only hopes she’s not the killer.
