Past Novels
2009: When She Fell
Zelda Minelli sold her soul to the editor of Roma’s largest news agency, but it hasn’t gotten her as far as she hoped. Three years in the biz and she’s still covering celebrity gossip. When she asks for a more relevant assignment, she’s sent to the boondocks of the Roman Empire… to cover the friend betrayed to get her job.
Getting to her subject is easier said than done. Princess Zoe’s armed bodyguard takes his job very seriously, and province of Germania is preparing to revolt.
Now on the front lines of a colony’s struggle for independence, Zelda gets a crash course in war correspondence–and loyalty.
. . .
Set in a world where the Roman Empire never ended, When She Fell is steampunk without the punk. And more hydraulics.
2006: The Silk That Cuts
It began badly. Few wars begin well, but this conflict reached into every niche and pore of the empire of Chihang. Months before a single blow was launched, families became divided. It seemed like harmless politics: Stay the course, or expand their borders. Then men with power began to whisper behind closed doors. But they were not the only ones listening.
2005: Confessions of an R.A.P.E. Employee
Zelda Minelli is the most promising journalist at the Roma Affiliated Press. She wants to anchor her own show on RAP1, but she’s stuck doing gossipy Entertainment stories. She clawed her way to where she is by throwing away the rules of fair play. Does she have the balls to continue to do so? Will she betray the same people she ruined before and put her nation in danger all to get that one big scoop?
Will she be able to live with herself if she does?
2004: Untitled Mobster Caper
A young boy’s illness places him and his family into the debt of a rival mob family. A decade and a half later, this debt is called in, but what would they assign a college student to do that they wouldn’t– or couldn’t– send their own agents to do?
