Overview
As the author of the Shamus Award-winning Roxane Weary series, I specialize in suspense genres--think mystery, crime, thriller, etc--and literary fiction or LGBTQ+ projects. I understand what makes a story tick, and I live for creating real, messy, complicated-as-hell characters that leap off the page and grab you by the shoulders.
