Available Now: A Brewing Storm
While consulting with the NYPD on a recent case, I was inspired to re-examine the circumstances around the death of my beloved character Derrick Storm. It turns out, there was much more to the story than met the eye.
I’m excited to be working with Hyperion to bring Derrick Storm fans a brand new adventure of mystery, action and intrigue. Look for it this May, wherever e-books are sold.
