A routine undercover meet turns deadly—and the case quickly becomes personal.
When a violent drug operation exposes a shadowy figure known only as the Boss, DEA agent Dillon Rains leads his team into an investigation marked by bombings, deception, and escalating threats. But the mission shifts from pursuit to desperation when Bria is kidnapped, forcing Dillon to confront his deepest fear: that his calling to serve justice may cost someone he cares about most.

The Circle In The Snow

The Circle In The Snow

About The Circle In The Snow

 

When a beloved schoolteacher is found posed in the snow with her mouth filled with ice, the isolated Wyoming town of Frostwood insists it’s a tragic anomaly. Investigator Rowan Pierce knows better. The staging is deliberate. The fear in the victim’s final notes is real. And the deeper he digs, the more the town pushes back.
Emily Hart wasn’t the first.
A decade earlier, a teenage girl died under the same chilling circumstances—her case quietly buried, her death dismissed. Now a brutal winter storm seals Frostwood off from the outside world, and Rowan uncovers a hidden pattern of stalking, missing evidence, and a strange symbol linking both murders to a long‑forgotten influence within the town.
Someone in Frostwood is protecting a killer.
Someone who learned long ago that silence is survival.
As witnesses vanish and the storm closes in, Rowan must expose a generational secret before another life is taken. But in a town built on loyalty and fear, the truth is the most dangerous thing of all.
Atmospheric, tense, and steeped in small‑town mystery, The Circle in the Snow is a gripping murder‑thriller perfect for fans of C.J. Tudor, Jane Harper, and Karin Slaughter.

The Serpent Seal

The Serpent Seal

About The Serpent Seal

 

A Dark Fantasy Mystery rooted in Caribbean folklore

The case was buried.
The child was forgotten.
But the seal remembers everything.

When Detective Brandaughn Henderson returns to the Rio Cobre to revisit a long-cold missing child case, he uncovers something that was never meant to be disturbed. A forgotten symbol resurfaces. Verses begin to appear where they shouldn’t. And a serpent-shaped seal—once dismissed as folklore—begins to stir.

As children start speaking words they were never taught, Henderson is drawn into a mystery that moves beyond crime and into the realm of the supernatural. What begins as an investigation becomes a confrontation with a system built to bind memory, suppress truth, and preserve silence through language itself.

The seal is not merely symbolic.
It holds memory.
And it is choosing who will carry it.

Blending dark fantasy, mystery, and supernatural fiction with rich Caribbean folklore, The Serpent Seal is a gripping, atmospheric novel about memory, power, and the danger of breaking what was designed to endure. Ideal for readers who enjoy fantasy mysteries, supernatural thrillers, and stories where ancient belief systems collide with modern life.

The Serpent Seal is the first book in the Echoes of the Seal Trilogy.
