    The bizarre murder of a parish priest at a New York bondage club is just the tip of an iceberg that leads Nikki Heat to a dark conspiracy that reaches all the way to the highest level of the NYPD. But when she gets too close to the truth, Nikki finds herself disgraced, stripped of her badge and out on her own with nobody she can trust. Except maybe the one man in her life who’s not a cop. Reporter Jameson Rook.

    In the midst of New York’s coldest winter in a hundred years, there’s one thing Nikki is determined to prove. Heat Rises.

With fame on the other hand, every day dozens of people clobber you in the streets, demanding to have your autograph. Fame—discount spa treatments. Fame—you forget what the night sky looks like without flashbulbs going off. See the difference? Read More >>

  • Writing and Life Tip: Expect the Unexpected

    I have always considered myself a liar. It is my profession to deceive.  Not only do I tell stories about events that did not happen featuring people who do not exist, I spend all of that time trying to throw you off.
