How did you know?? His full legal name is Caleb Zachariah Cohen! (Not really, but if you makes you feel better...)
-
At the sound of my voice, Caleb spun around, wide-eyed and startled. When he saw me standing there, his eyes instantly narrowed and he took on a defensive posture. "What the hell are you doing here?" he demanded. "Spying on me?" I shrugged. "I was looking for you and just happened to overhear your argument with Asher." "Cut the bullshit. You were eavesdropping." "Maybe I was. So what? I wouldn't have heard you lying to Asher if I hadn't." "I didn't lie." "You told h

At least you only have to wait until Monday...

The next morning, I woke up feeling far more optimistic than I had the night before. Seth was the first thing that came to mind, and I was surprised by how vividly I remembered my dream. I took it as some kind of sign. Before heading to work, I made sure Micah's business card was safely tucked in my wallet. It took me all morning to gather enough courage to actually dial his number. I almost copped out and texted him instead, but I decided it was better to call. After I finally dialed, I st

It's herring chowder!

This might end up as a pull quote on my website...

I write mysteries! It's sort of right there in the job description. I do try to play fair though, and the clues are there, and they will (hopefully) make sense when all is revealed...which won't be much longer. Only six chapters left!

As I sat in the cold, sterile visitor room at the juvenile detention center, waiting for Caleb, I couldn't help but think I was spending far too much time in this place. If everything went according to plan, however, this could very well be my last visit. I waited several more minutes before the door opened and Caleb appeared. He took one look in my direction and turned away. "I don't want to see him," he snapped at the guard. "Caleb, wait. It's important." He paused but didn

When you work in the arts... 🤣

It very much depends on the person. Some are quite fun and whimsical. Others are exhausting energy vampires. LOL

Ironically, I wasn't even living in Baltimore when we wrote Breaking Masks. It's a fun rom-com with shifting perspectives that really finishes Jake's story.
-
It is spawning season, apparently.
-
Yeah, Jake is sort of a tragic character in many ways. He has a full story arc, but it's spread out over multiple books (and one collab with @Dabeagle that we'll have to update and repost...if he's up for it).
-
There are a lot of fun characters to write in this book. Finn is definitely one of them. And I've known quite a few people like him, too. 🤣

Early the next morning, we set off for home. When we got back to the office, Novak ordered me to forget the case for the rest of the weekend and relax. I didn't argue. I felt like I needed a little time for myself. When I got home, I found Kane lying on his bed reading a magazine. He glanced up as I came in. "Did you talk to Adam when you came in?" "No. I didn't see him, so I just came up here to drop off my bag. Why?" "Judy and Jake are in town to settle on a house. App

It just occurred to me that I never posted the old book trailer for this book (back before it went out of print). Enjoy! All Lost Things Book Trailer

You won't have to wait long to find out.

The beach house is safe... for now... 😉

“Finnegan Byrnes,” Marco replied. Wait. What? "Who?" I was confused. "Finnegan? You know, that weird kid who wears elf ears sometimes?" "Uh...no." I couldn’t place him, and you would have thought that would be memorable. Marco shrugged. "He's a couple of grades behind you." "Do you know how to get in touch with him?" "Uh, no," he said, wrinkling his nose. "Why would I know that? I just told you he's weird." "Caleb is weird too, but that didn't stop you fro

The next chapter comes out tomorrow morning, so the cliffhanger is, at least, a short one. And Adam will be okay. That gets (mostly) resolved in the next chapter as well.

There's always more... It's an abundant resource.

Micah Gerber was still on my mind as I drove home from work that afternoon. I was fairly certain he'd been flirting with me, but part of me wondered if I was just reading too much into it. Maybe he was just using me to get a scoop. Or maybe he wanted a scoop of me. Those thoughts were still running through my head as I pulled into the driveway and turned off my car. I opened the front door of the house only to be greeted by an exuberant Steve, who grabbed me in a bear hug and swun
