Morgan's Landing
I've just signed a contract for my tenth book from the Wild Rose Press!
Release date: 2025
In the small town of Morgan's Landing, fourteen-year-old Julie Morgan disappears on her way to school after a spat with her twin sister. Detective Jim Brady uncovers a few suspects—Is it fired school janitor Bear Wayans, paroled sex offender Raymond Ochner, Julie's computer teacher David Hartwell…or his own teenage son Colin? Jim can't believe his son could be involved, but his wife is convinced the boy is hiding something. He needs to find Julie before the worst happens—and keep the peace at home.
Excerpt
"Julie Morgan is missing."
Jim Brady took the call at 10:30. He had been with the Morgan's Landing Police Department for twelve years, and this was only his second missing person case. The first had involved a three-year-old boy who had wandered away and been found within the hour. He still remembered the emotions associated with that hour: the overwhelming anguish of the boy's mother, the sharp desire to make sure his own son was safe. This time Colin was in school, and Jim resisted the urge to call Frances—of course the baby was safe with her.
