This title is available on Amazon in both Kindle and paperback versions.
Book 3 of the series, Fire in Broken Water follows Pegasus as she fights with her partner Shepherd Malone who is pursuing his own personal vendetta while a killer roams free. Peg takes justice into her own hands as she encounters a beautiful Friesian stallion, a Gypsy clan that may be the local drug connection, and a blackmailer who won’t call it quits.
Now available through the Amazon Kindle store.
In Book #4 of the series, Peril in Silver Nightshade, Pegasus gets mixed up with a con who wants to scam her parents, a suicide that might be murder, and a stolen gun that is traceable to a war Vet with PTSD. Murder is in the wind, and Peg must find the killer before her nemesis Chas Doon does!
The novel takes place in beautiful Red Rock State Park near Sedona, Arizona.
In Book #5, Silence in West Fork, Pegasus works against time to clear her former partner’s daughter from the charge of murder.
It doesn’t help that the detective on the case has secrets of his own, or that the victim is thoroughly disliked in the community. There are lots of suspects!
Love your books about Jerome, I’ve spent many happy hours in the Verde Valley going back to the 60s when Jerome was almost a ghost town and Yarnell Hill wasn’t paved Keep on writing Thanks
Just found your novels. Ready to read the third one. Really liked the first two.
Thanks for your kind words!
Thanks for your kind words! Most of the photographs you see in my blog posts I have taken over the years, so it is possible to combine art, photography and writing if you want to! Be well.
I am always in awe of people who actually write a book and you have written so many. I hope you will be an inspiration to me as I keep threatening to finish my short stories and get them published! I happen to love detective procedural mysteries so this is right up my street… once I have made good on some promises I made to myself regarding my photography/art/writing I look forward to reading your novels.
Good luck! I know you can do it!
