"Sick to Death is a must-read from a master of the private eye genre."
—Michael Bracken, Anthony, Edgar, and Shamus nominee

Starting with a daring art heist and a walloping surprise for disgraced quarterback–turned–private eye Andy Hayes, this riveting mystery novel—eighth in the Shamus Award-nominated series—takes readers on a roller coaster ride through COVID and the anti-vaxxer movement, the streets of Columbus, Ohio, and an FBI investigation that points too close to home.

the end of the road

"A gripping novel that will latch onto you and refuse to let go all the way to its explosive end. The End of the Road sizzles with the sparks of its looming conflagration.”
—Lee Martin, Pulitzer Prize finalist author of The Bright Forever

“Perfect for fans of crime novels and mysteries. The book tells stories of Columbus’ dark doppelgänger, where greed and pride have run rampant.”
