THE GRACELAND CONSPIRACY. UPDATE: Mindbridge Press released this book April 1, 2019.

My last thriller THE WHITE LIE was released in2014 by Mindbridge Press. See book trailer video in my vid's. Born and educated in Alabama, but live in Mississippi. The novel is crime fiction meant to be a fast-paced read, something you will enjoy in five hours on a beach, but with a story and characters that you will remember. Many have called it a good read.

Have begun work on the next book in THE WHITE LIE series titled THE BLACK TRUTH. ...more
