If this dumb war
Would end today
We still
Ain’t felt the worst
The sticker shock
Is coming
Our supply chain
Has been cursed
If life’s
Like a commuter train
Its track
Has got a #rift
And we’re bound
For derailment
All because of
Mad King’s grift…

My first novel in the sapphic genre is an unapologetic contribution to the urban fantasy detective subgenre. Lies Are Forever introduces Sloane West, a complicated, flawed, lesbian PI solving supernatural crime on Vancouver Island.
Available in eBook, Paperback, and Audiobook.
