My Albert Taylor Mystery Double Feature, Private Number/Claws, was officially released today!
Get your Kindle Edition from Amazon.com now, Only $2.99!
Synopsis:
Private Number: A radio station receives a strange call from a caller from beyond the grave, at least that’s what’s claimed. But is it a hoax, a crank caller, or is the person truly dead? When things get more baffling paranormal investigator, Albert Taylor, steps in to look into matters that harbor a dark and evil secret.
Claws: A series of brutal and savage animal-like murders rattle the small mining town of Brewster, Nevada, a quiet, little community where such atrocities are unheard of, where everyone knows each other’s name, and where you can leave your door unlocked at night…until now that is. Weird animal hairs are discovered at each of the crime scenes. Is it an animal or a sinister creature of myth and lore lurking in the woods? When the body count starts racking up and tension among the townspeople rises, the town turns to paranormal investigator, Albert Taylor, to sort matters and lay his traps for the predator.
Back in October, I was at the Livermore Library’s Indie Author Day Showcase, promoting and selling some of my books. Before the showcase started, Andy Weir, bestselling author of The Martian and Artemis, was interviewed. Great and inspiring interview.
Some photos from the day!
