    BLURB:
    Don’t talk to strangers, young man—especially the dead ones.

    It’s the Roaring Twenties. Skirts are short, crime is rampant and booze is in short supply. Prohibition has hit Little Egypt, where newspaperman David Flynn has come to do a follow-up story on the Herren Massacre. The massacre isn’t the only news in town though. Spiritualist medium Julian Devereux claims to speak to the dead—and he charges a pretty penny for it.

    Flynn knows a phony when he sees one, and he’s convinced Devereux is as fake as a cigar store Indian. But the reluctant attraction he feels for the deceptively soft, not-his-type Julian is as real as it gets.

  3. My debut fiction work, WATERMARK: A Novel of the Middle Ages, was released this week. The story centers on how papermaking came to replace parchment, opening up reading and writing to the masses. Watermark is sold in bookstores and online; digital versions are also available.
