GALILEO'S PENDULUM
A Ross and O'Neill Adventure

Forging a legendary Galileo relic and selling it to a notorious crime boss thrusts restoration specialist Amber Ross and her treasure hunting partner Rick O’Neill into a desperate race to find the real artifact. A machine assumed to be myth. A device capable of more than most think.

Ross and O’Neill must uncover secrets long buried, mysteries that take them across the world, staying just ahead of those hunting them. And if they can’t solve the mystery and locate the real relic, neither will escape with their life.

Percy James Mysteries

Short Stories and Novellas


MOVIE MAY MURDER
A Percy James Mystery


Welcome to the Azur Regent

Percy James rarely trudges through a dull day at her job as a front desk clerk of a small boutique hotel on the Upper East Side. New York City draws all kinds, and a lot of the more interesting people end up at the Azur Regent. Percy loves the variety. Always a story to tell. Always something interesting happening.

But sometimes things can get maybe a little too interesting.

Because even small boutique hotels turn up occasional trouble. Like the guest room covered in blood.

Uncovering the culprit and keeping the other guests safe, all while not getting reprimanded by her boss… Percy will count that as a good day at work.

So long as no one dies.

Something weird is happening at the Azur Regent.

REPLICAS RISK RUIN
A Percy James Mystery

Welcome to the Azur Regent

February brings calm and quiet to the Azur Regent. But for a sleep deprived Percy James, she could do with a little more excitement. Or a night’s sleep. A full night’s sleep would really help. With her baby niece sick and her sister losing her mind over the baby’s first cold, Percy starts to feel like a walking zombie.

She even starts imagining things with one of the few guests staying at the hotel. Percy prides herself on her cheerful work ethic. Seeing suspicious things where none exist proves she needs more than makeup to cover the circles under her eyes.

Fortunately, working at a hotel comes with perks. A night of uninterrupted, undisturbed sleep will put Percy back to rights.

Except nothing at the Azur Regent is ever that simple. Even a night’s sleep.
