Murder on the Oldman
Set to fly on October 1, 2026
The Oldman River is running dry, but blood on its banks is fresh.
In the hottest spring on record, Lethbridge's coulees are parched and tempers are rising.
When a prominent rancher is murdered, private investigators Samuel Rigondeaux, a brilliant ex-librarian, and his partner Flagstaff, a disgraced Mountie, must navigate old grudges and simmering resentments to clear their client's name.
But as they dig beneath a community fractured by drought and desperation, long-buried secrets emerge—and the evidence begins pointing back to the very person who hired them.
Meanwhile, a familiar threat looms. The Crow Killer is orchestrating a lethal vendetta from behind bars, turning the upcoming murder trial into a calculated strike against everyone Samuel and Flagstaff hold dear.
As the land dries, justice proves as elusive as the rain–and when the storm comes, there may be no mercy.
A Murder of Prose
(Analog Books #2 Best Seller 2025)
“Do you want to ride the lightning?” whispered the killer.
Samuel Rigondeaux, a meticulous reference librarian, joins five aspiring writers at the Lethbridge Library each week to fulfil his dream of writing a novel.
What could be the harm? A bruised ego?
But when novelists start turning up dead at the hands of a twisted serial killer, a black crow feather left at each murder scene, and the police investigation falters, Samuel is compelled to act. He recruits Flagstaff, an ex-RCMP detective suffering PTSD and living on the streets, to investigate the gruesome killings before another author is brutally silenced.
Can the librarian’s mad research skills and Flagstaff’s streetwise savvy reveal the killer’s identity, or will Samuel be added to the growing body count? And why are crows maintaining a not-so-silent vigil at the library?
Dive into this gripping murder mystery where the pursuit of literary dreams turns into a final, fatal chapter, proving that some stories are better left unwritten.
The Sunbeam Room
United by blood, but divided by life experience, geography and politics, Sarah and Digger couldn’t be more different.
A failed marriage, a crippling injury, and losing his only family connection leave Digger, a sixty-one-year-old Alberta oil sands worker, alone and directionless until his mother’s shocking confession and dying wish upends his life.
Sarah is a cautious number-crunching actuary in Ottawa. But her ordered world collapses when her husband Pieter is diagnosed with early-onset dementia just as the world shuts down.
In The Sunbeam Room, Digger embarks on a TransCanada quest to honour his mother’s dying request: hand deliver a letter to Sarah, the daughter she gave up at birth.
