bio

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)

this is a bad woman....

Such hatred is impossible to live with. No sane person could live in such a world. Estelle is the epitome of how warped one can become when filled with hatred.

Book Excerpt

The Mermaid Did It

The hours passed easily as she drove north. Her mind swirling with scenarios of what she wanted to happen—what she knew she could make happen—disposing of E.J., what to do with Fate and how to do it, and Keisha—sweet little Keisha. She laughed as she thought of the petite black girl and how easily she’d befriended her. “They’re all so stupid.”

Licking her lips, Estelle flipped her hair to the side, now such a dark blue it shown black. Fumbling with her purse she searched for her make-up bag.

Again in the rearview mirror she studied her now made up eyes--they smoldered with heavy dark eyeliner and smoky eyeshadow. Her body nearly trembled as she felt the intensity of her god-like power.
