Author Biography

Thallasophile - lover of the ocean. That's me. I have a strong affinity for that entity and express those feelings through my writing--my books. They may span many genres but are all connected to the place I call home. Genres published: historical fiction, literary, murder, essays--they all are set on Topsail Island where I grew up. It is my way of perserving this wonderful place and the people with whom I share my life. The first book in the Murder by the Sea series is WATERLOGGED. Don Belkin is a former Marine, now a detective with the Surf City Police Dept. He's a conflicted man, to say the least, as he struggles to accept his past and find solace in the small beach town. Bitterness runs deep between the locals who have populated the area for generations and the "new" folks who think they've found paradise. Oh, Topsail Island may be the perfect tourist attraction, but in the summer it's just plain MURDER. (there are 5 more books in the series)

Book Excerpt

Serenade of the Cattails

Towler chuckled loudly. He had become much more successful than his father had ever been. So yes, he deserved the fine home in Wilmington, the beachfront vacation house, the beautiful wife and all the power that came along with having money. Certainly, he deserved the reward of a new car for having pulled off one of the best legal coups of his life. Getting Amos Burger off with a mere two months had not been easy, but he knew the right people and they owed him.
