Atacama Notes

Atacama is now available! This is my thriller with horror and science fiction elements. The 36 interior illustrations are by me, but the cover is by Chris Panatier. If you like The X-Files, The Thing, The Twilight Zone, Black Mirror, and other unsettling mystery/thrillers, this is for you!
