The FBI had never seen anything like it -- not to this degree. They were used to people dying left right and center, be it premeditated, accidental or natural. What they can't seem to fathom, is this new chain of events that leave them cold trails right from the start. From the murder of a teenager to the death of her supposed killer, things only get stranger. There was no connection between the murders other than the accused. Three years after the case goes cold, the cycle begins again a little too close to home. Using one of the brighter minds in the organization, twenty four year old agent Jace Vee is sent to put a dent in the case. But he isn't sent as the lone wolf he really is. Tagging along is his new partner, carefree Axel Crowe, a hotshot junior agent and together they must strike the iron while it's hot before this faceless killer leaves them with yet another cold trail.

2012 SILVER MEDAL WINNER in the Indie Awards (from the Independent Publishers Association). When the heart sees more keenly than the eye, beauty is unexpectedly found. Gen is a teen-age woman. She is also a bio-warfare research project, designed by Col. Jack Eberhard. Born at Redstone Military Laboratories inside a quarantine unit rated Biohazard Level Four, Gen’s body harbors billions of microscopic organisms that have mutated from her genetically altered cells. The tiny entities in Gen’s tissues control life at the molecular level and Eberhard weekly tests their ability to heal the simulated combat wounds he inflicts on her. When a deadly threat forces Gen to escape the lab, she discovers that her marvelous power to reconstruct living tissue, from proteins to cells to whole organs, enables her to transform herself bodily into any animal whose DNA she collects through a simple touch. While in the form of a dolphin, Gen saves dolphin researcher Cade Seaborne from drowning. Her heartfelt attraction to him compels her to spontaneously shape-shift back into human form; but the morphing is incomplete and Cade encounters Gen as a woman with her head and face hideously deformed. As Gen struggles with her dilemma of falling in love with a kind-hearted man who nonetheless regards her as pitifully ugly, the evolving microscopic life-forms inside her compel her to complete a frightening journey to fulfill their mysterious mission. Meanwhile, Eberhard has tracked down Gen and he’s sending in Special Forces to carry out a priority-one Executive Order: capture and destroy his dangerous experiment. When Cade at last recognizes beauty behind the mask of a beast, he’ll give his life to protect the unusual woman he cherishes. And he learns that love has its own transformative power. Michael Crichton meets Hans Christian Anderson in this romantic thriller with the brains of science fiction and the heart of a fairy tale.

In the year 2112, one hundred years after the meteor crash and seventeen years after WWIII, there exists a nationality of sorts known as 'Furries'. Their appearances range from simple ear and tail attachments to horrifying, beastly mutations, but that's not important. What is important is the relationship between our main characters as they travel towards their destination, and face many hardships along the way that may or may not relate to this minority. Many controversial views will be addressed as expected with everyday life, so I suggest you proceed with caution. Guns will be shot, lies will be told, kisses will be exchanged, and the human mind will be pushed beyond the edge of insanity. This is not your average story. Why? Because you have me as the narrator. You can trust me. (Nominated for On the Rise in the 2011 Watty Awards.)

But what Pandora didn't expect after all these years of tests and questions is that there is more to her than simply a rare genetic condition but the key between this world and another.

In 2042, the United States of America were consolidated into the American Utopia, a totalitarian dystopia in which many of the freedoms known in the early 21st century no longer exist. Among the things to be outlawed are smoking, owning of firearms or weapons by citizens, and homosexuality. Ten years later, a movement known as the Humanum appeared, starting rallies and other political movements in a non-violent effort to change the government. The Humanum later changed to the Humanum Resistance when they realized nothing would change without force, so they went underground. Twenty years after the Resistance started, a man named Zachary Sinclair, in Pax City - formerly New York City - works for the Resistance as a courier. He delivers packages and messages that, if sent through the normal channels, would incite the wrath of the police. When on a run, one day, he encounters Felix Loury, beaten and bloodied - and missing his left arm - in an alleyway. The resulting multiple trips to the hospital change Zach's life. In what way, who can tell?
