To Die for Chocolate
My first
work of fiction was To Die for Chocolate, and tells the
story of two LAPD Homicide Investigators who are investigating a series of
vicious rape/murders. The lead character is Investigator Steve Moore.
The killer, dubbed “The Candy Man” due to his penchant for leaving a
single chocolate in the hand of each of his victims, begins to leave clues
for the two investigators, taunting them. But when one of the
investigator's wives becomes a victim, the investigation suddenly becomes
very personal! As Moore and his partner race against the clock to
identify and locate the killer before another person dies, Moore realizes
that memories from his troubled childhood that he has hidden for years
begin to surface and Moore does not like what he sees! He’s becoming as
cold-hearted and cunning as his current quarry. Can he identify and
arrest the killer without loosing his soul?
City of Fallen Angels
Currently in the process of being published, this work
details real drama and corruption that reaches from law enforcement up
into the marble pillars of city politicians - check back for further
details on this work and its publishing date.
Current works in progress:

has been completed and "Copper Capers II" is in progress - enjoy

perspective.
"REAL Love on the
Keys" is a 'salt & pepper' work which my wife and I have written
