Something ancient sleeps in the shadows of Umber Gardens.
When Dr. Benjamin Kent is extended an invitation to work at a prestigious mental health facility, he thinks it’s too good to be true.
Ben soon realizes something is wrong at the Home. The darkness has eyes, and it’s hungry. The line between reality and fantasy begins to blur, and soon Umber Gardens’ dark secrets force Ben to question his family’s safety–and his own sanity.

Most cops get to deal with living criminals, but Agent Kirsten Wren is not most cops.
In the year 2418, rampant violence and corporate warfare have left no shortage of angry wraiths in West City. A gifted psionic with a troubled past, Kirsten possesses a rare combination of abilities that give her a powerful weapon against these spirits.
Kirsten is shunned by a society that does not understand psionics, feared by those who know what she can do, and alone in a city of millions. Every so often, when a ghost gathers enough strength to become a threat to the living, these same people rely on her to stop it.

is the tale of Roberto Spaccio, a young man elected to be Pope through the machinations of his ambitious father.
Unlike his native Verona, Roberto finds that Rome is a rough, bawdy place full of men who will kill you for nothing. On top of that, the political elites in control of the Church are notoriously corrupt and debauched.
Roberto struggles with his role as a political puppet as his naiveté is confronted time and again—until he finds his true calling as an agent of the Angel of Death. While maintaining the guise of the oblivious pawn by day, he begins to kill through the night, setting out to sweep the Church clean to redeem himself to God.
They made him the Holy Father. Now, he’ll make them pay.

My books are also dedicated to everyone that have helped bring it together, and everyone that always was and later became my friends, kickstarters, moral (and immoral) support, and street crew. You have been my rock.
