You asked for it, and now it’s here…or coming soon! After getting inspired from my experience at the Writer’s Police Academy in September, I realized Cage Foster had a lot more story to tell.

Delta Crossroads readers remember Cage Foster as the one who tamed the Damned Yankee and helped to solve one of the grisliest crimes in Adams County history. Now a newly minted Criminal Investigator for the Adams County Police, Cage’s life is once again turned upside down. His fiancé is expecting, Cage is terrified of being a bad father, and he’s determined to prove himself worthy of his new position.

The first book releases January 12th on all vendors, but Kindle readers can buy their copy now! That means the book will download to your device at midnight on the 12th, and you’ll be able to read Cage’s story first!

Living Victim (Delta Detectives #1) January 2015

When a hoarder is found dead in his bathtub, Cage Foster believes he’s dealing with a natural death. A perimeter search reveals a hidden horror, and clues point to the kidnapping of a local girl once presumed dead. Cage must find the living victim before it’s too late. Will he lose himself in the process? 

PRE-ORDER LIVING VICTIM NOW!

Tin God’s release date is April 8th, and I’m excited to give you the exclusive cover reveal by Night Owl Reviews.

The inspiration for Tin God’s cover

Tin God is set in the fictional town of Roselea, Mississippi, modeled after Natchez. It’s loaded with historic antebellum homes, and the first big event in the book takes place inside the town’s showpiece, Evaline Hall.

My first real introduction to the Old South and Civil War history came in 1985. I was eight years old, and ABC aired a miniseries called North and South. I fell in love with everything the show represented, including Mont Royal Plantation.

Boone Hall outside of Charleston, South Carolina was used for the Mont Royal exterior shots, and when I created Evaline, that house was all I could see. Click here to see Boone Hall.

Now, I couldn’t use stock photography unless I wanted to deal with copyright issues, and I wanted the cover for TIN GOD to be all original. So I contracted artist Kimberlee Ketterman Edgar to paint what would be come the wraparound for the book.

In my head, I saw a blazing sunset representing the Mississippi heat, with Evaline standing proud on the hill and flanked by live oaks. But we needed to add the suspense, so I suggested Kimberlee highlight the bloody planter found by the main character, Jaymee, in the books first few pages. And then there was the religious aspect of the book, as well as the heartbreaking journey Jaymee goes on as a mother in search of her child.

The result was a gorgeous painting of the vision I had for TIN GOD. The cover represents every key element in the novel, and I could not be more grateful to Kimberlee for sharing her amazing talent with me.
