Looking for some fun Christmas reads or gifts? I've got pirates, medieval relic-thieves, a cranky pipe-smoking Scottish sleuth, and a vagrant P.I., just to name a few!

Check out my website for the links!

And don't forget A Winter Kiss, out on the 23rd!

Meet some pleasant medieval tavern-goers, who also happen to peddle stolen holy relics, in "The Eyes of St Thomas." Read it in the Aug 2024 issue of the late, great Mystery Magazine!

It's Christmas Eve in medieval Normandy, and the brothers at the Abbey of Ouche are ready to celebrate with the blessing of their saint... who's body seems to have walked away, of its own holy accord. Find out why, in "The Miraculous Walk of Saint Ebrulf."

Out this December!

Why does Ed Bent work for Five Cents per mystery? Read "The Five Cent Detective," and maybe, just maybe, he'll tell you.

A conniving count in 1100s Normandy has a night to remember, full of whores, priests, murderers, thieves, secret dungeons, and holy relics, in "Godbrillan's Pit."

A personal favorite of mine.
