Shadow Flicker is out

My latest book, SHADOW FLICKER, has been released by Flame Tree Press. The book is getting some pretty good reviews. Publishers Weekly in its review described it as a "dark and disturbing treat."

Booklist in its review state: "This is a gripping horror story from an author who deserves a wider audience."

Check it out!
