Contains the first three books in the best-selling The Haunted Series: Shallow Graves, The Seventh Ward, and Seaforth Prison.

What starts off as a simple assignment - finding a missing cat - ends up being one of the most volatile, and personal, cases of ex-NYPD Detective Damien Drake’s career. Drawn back to the city that he both loves and loathes, Drake is once again thrust into the spotlight. This time, it’s to search for a missing Tabby. But while, at the outset, this seems straightforward and benign, he should know better; after all, with a child he hasn’t seen since birth, an entire police department out to get him, and a PI Firm on the brink of financial ruin, nothing in his life is easy.

When a body is found - dissolved in acid, a ring of finger bones cemented to the skull - Drake is floored. For more than a year, he's been telling the NYPD that the man he had killed, the man who had taken his partner's life, wasn't the real Skeleton King. Nobody believed him. Even now, with a new skeleton as proof, Drake is met with resistance. A copycat killer, they say. But Drake knows this is the work of the original Skeleton King, and he is driven to seek revenge for his dead partner. Only, like before, he has no suspects.

After her husband's death, Anne LaForet is alone to raise her young daughter in an area of the swamp that is too foul to grow anything. Anne is no criminal, but circumstances force her to resort to theft. When an encounter threatens to put her away for her crimes, Anne accidentally discovers that she also has another skill, one that helps women who can't conceive become pregnant.

Six years has passed since the catastrophic blizzard descended on idyllic Askergan County, and most residents have spent this time convincing themselves that the evil that blew in with the storm never existed. But it does exist...and it's not done with Askergan just yet.

Tucked away in northeastern Vermont, picturesque Askergan County is the perfect place for a winter vacation - for the lucky few who know about it. Askergan is so peaceful, crime so nonexistent, that they don't even have a full-time police force, just a Sheriff and two deputies who spend most of their time dishing out parking tickets and breaking up the occasional bar fight. But that was before the storm.

Detective Damien Drake is back, but after what happened with the Butterfly Killer, he's no longer associated with the NYPD. Now Drake heads his own PI firm, which specializes in dealing with paranoid housewives and rich suburbanites suspicious that their nannies are stealing their silverware. That is until a visitor comes to him with a series of photographs of dead people. The problem is, no one believes that the victims in the images have actually been murdered.

Crime scene clean-up expert Tommy Wilde is used to tidying up other people's messes, and he's damn good at it. But when it's his own hands that get dirty, the stains suddenly seem impossible to remove. It's like any other day for Tommy Wilde: Another crime scene to clean-up, blood stains to remove from carpeting, tissue to scrape out of wood flooring. Everything is absolutely normal...up until the moment he receives a frantic call from his brother.

This high-profile case has everyone vying for glory—the LAPD, OC Sheriff's Department, and the California Bureau of Investigation. But young FBI Agent Constantine 'Con' Striker wants nothing to do with it. Fresh off the high of capturing the Ashley Madison Killer, Con's personal life is in shambles. His mother is unraveling, crying out for his long-deceased father, and his twin sister Valerie has mysteriously vanished.

Welcome to my first podcast , I hope you enjoy listening to it!

We're THAT Chicago Bears podcast. Bringing you pointed analysis and engaging interviews with fun moments in between.

Two childhood friends talking about their views on the world and what it takes to make it.

Tommy Wilde thought that helping his brother out of a jam would be the end of it. He couldn't have been more wrong. Crime scene clean-up is one thing, but disposing of bodies is a different beast entirely - especially when they keep piling up all around you. What started as simply trying to keep his brother out of prison has put Tommy directly in the cross-hairs of some of the most powerful and deadly people in New York - on both sides of the law. And Tommy is just a man good at cleaning up messes...he has no experience tightrope walking.

The twisted DNR Group is free to pursue their brutal agenda without opposition. What they didn't count on, however, is someone unexpected stepping up and trying to put a stop to them.

More mockery. More mayhem. More murder. Your favorite homicidal forensic pathologist Dr. Beckett Campbell is back! And this time, it appears that he might have someone on his side, someone who understands him, someone who has his back no matter what. But there is no such thing as a free lunch, nor are there drugs without side-effects. Before he can wrap his head around what, exactly, he's gotten into, Beckett finds himself tangled in a messy web of lies, deceit, and most importantly of all, relationship troubles.

Beckett's back, but this time he isn't worried about a new tattoo...unless it's a prison tat, that is. He should have seen this coming; After all, a person can only go around extracting his unique brand of justice for so long without drawing unwanted attention. Caught between a scalpel and a bedpan, only an unlikely ally can help keep him out of prison. But this will require revealing his true self, including the icky parts that Beckett has never shown to anyone. This also means putting the people he cares for in danger.

Beckett knows he should ignore the ignominious words of a previously unknown pastor that find their way into his inbox. He also knows that it's not just the wrath of a man in cloth he risks infuriating should he decide to investigate, but changing his vacation is guaranteed to piss off his girlfriend, Suzan Cuthbert. But extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, and Beckett refuses to let anyone make a mockery of his profession, especially not a snake oil salesman sporting a glorified nightie.

Stay out of trouble, they said. Lay low until things blow over, they suggested. Sound advice for Senior Medical Examiner Dr. Beckett Campbell, considering he was found hovering over the body of accused serial killer Craig Sloan, a bloody rock in his hand. Sound advice, all of it. Problem is even a vacation in the Virgin Gorda isn't far enough for Beckett to escape his demons. It doesn't help that there's something strange happening on the island, something that has to do with bitter drinks and bikinis.
