Dream Stalker

Lily Scott vowed never to dream-walk again, but now her daughter is wrongly accused of murder. She must take the risk, even if it costs Lily her life. 

Lily is a contemporary Salem witch who descends from a long line of witches born with the power to walk into other people’s dreams as a way to fight crime. But her disastrous first dream-walk almost killed her, and she vowed never to repeat the painful experience.

But now her daughter is falsely accused of murder, and the only way to clear her would be for Lily to enter the dreaming mind of the real killer, risking confrontation with the deadly Dream Stalker. Can Lily summon the courage?

Malice Domestic Anthology

Further Adventures of Flo and Rose

My short story, “Death’s Door,” appears in the 2021 Malice Domestic Anthology: Murder Most Diabolical.

“Death’s Door” tells the story of Flo Dembrowski and Rose Hernandez, two homeless women with a knack for solving crime, who face a murderer and possibly find a forever-home.

Malice Domestic is a fan convention. Held annually in the Washington DC area since 1989, it celebrates traditional mystery books typified by Agatha Christie. The convention promotes writers, celebrates fans, and honors mystery writing in their own unique way. And each year it publishes an anthology of short stories.
