How Not to Die Alone meets Yesterday in this wryly charming American tale of one man's struggle to undo his worst mistake. Rife with quirky comedy and cringy contrivances, The Improbable Existence of Life After Divorce will keep you abso-bloody-lutely laughing until the curtainfall. All Russell Brown really wants is to get back the almost perfect life he had before he ruined his reputation, destroyed his career, and crushed the woman he loves. But the only thing that could salvage the wreckage of his life is a time machine, and that's impossible . . . Or is it? "Never confuse the impossible with the utterly, thoroughly, completely, totally improbable." -Professor Stem Bik, Russell's best mate (de facto) and world's most brilliant physicist (self-nomination, pending) When Russell's meager inheritance leads him to a family secret of Einsteinian proportions, the alchemy to alter his past is at last within reach. But, first, he must conceal a hoard of stolen treasures, hide a dead body, and locate the elusive part to repair the device-all before time's up.

Lynchtown Wolf raises the stakes in a game of deception versus truth. The year is 1923. In Fort Smith, Arkansas, a raucous western town with a history of outlaws, marshals, hangings, and prostitution, Roy Kemp Ulric, the city's District Attorney, is on trial for a crime he committed. A guilty verdict means time in federal prison and jeopardizes everything he's built- his career, marriage, and a stash of blackmail money. Wulf, a scoundrel with few scruples who served as Mr. Ulric's accomplice in the crime, is ready to reveal the attorney for the wolf he is, but both his health and business are failing at a rapid rate. Daniella Cordero, formerly known as the prostitute Gypsy, is a key witness for the prosecution, but she fears that her testimony may cause her to lose her best friend, Robert Callum, if he discovers the truth about her past. Can Mr. Ulric convince the jury of his innocence and hide his sins from his wife, or will everyone discover the liar and criminal he is? Will Wulf die before he's put on the witness stand, or will he at last get his vengeance on Mr. Ulric? Without Robert's father, Henry, to protect her from the wolves, does Daniella stand to lose more than just Robert's friendship? Lynchtown Wolf is the second novel in The River Series. It follows Bordertown Gypsy and precedes Mobtown Player and Rivertown Crooner.

The secrets of Daniella Callum's past have finally caught up with her. Under the mounting weight of scandal and deceit, Daniella's engagement to Dr. Carvan Gains begins to crumble. Although he vowed to overlook her past sins, pressures from his family, friends, and the entire gossipy college town cause his loyalties to his fiancé to waver at every turn. Terrified of losing him and his children, Daniella compromises her beliefs and makes promises she knows might destroy her. But the biggest blow is still to come. When her brother Robert came to her for help in his greatest hour of need, Daniella coldly turned him away. Now she learns that Jack McGurn's men put three bullets through his chest that night. Robert is dead- and it's Daniella's fault. The shock and guilt this realization thrusts upon her is crippling. Not only is her future becoming more uncertain with each passing day, but she begins to fear her own judgment. As she struggles to put her life back together, a series of events draws her back to the city where it all began. Fort Smith, Arkansas. The house. The secrets. They lurk in that town like shadows, darkening every corner and memory. As Daniella bravely faces them alone, she makes the most shocking discovery of all- a ghost from her past has come back to life... Rivertown Crooner is the fourth and final novel in The River Series. It follows Bordertown Gypsy, Lynchtown Wolf, and Mobtown Player.
