What I write
I love a good mystery, and I’m intrigued by all ancient technologies: astrology, numerology, cartomancy. So, I blend my two passions to create densely plotted mysteries that all feature adventures in the metaphysical.

Secrets of the Red Oak Tavern
Detective Hunter Davis has spent his career trusting hard evidence, not horoscopes. But when San Francisco crime boss Sean Muldooney is murdered beneath his family’s tavern, the case pulls Hunter into a web of dirty cops, stolen tech, and enemies wearing friendly faces. Forensic astrologer Madeline Merritt sees a pattern of betrayal in the chart for Sean’s death; her sister, rookie reporter Cora, smells the story that could launch her career—or end it.
