L.A. SHADOWS MYSTERY SERIES
Shadows Over Summer Starlight
(L.A. Shadows Book 1)
Fame isn’t tearing the band apart—murder is.
Summer Starlight was one of the hottest boybands in the world, until the group’s squeaky-clean heartthrob is found dead in a dive bar. When more bandmates start turning up dead, it’s clear someone is targeting the pop sensations one by one.
Reluctantly pulled into the high-profile case, a weary homicide detective—and single father—takes the job as a chance to connect with his teenage daughter, a devoted fan. But as he investigates, he uncovers a world behind the spotlight that’s far darker than glitter and smiles. The band’s image hides buried secrets, broken pasts, and bitter rivalries.
And the deeper he digs, the more he realizes: the worst secret of all is the one still waiting to be uncovered.
Shadows Over Sunday Season
(L.A. Shadows Book 2)
Sunday: the perfect day for faith, football—and felony.
Martin is a pious man with a gambling habit, a love of sports, and a foolish belief: that he can buy back the love of his estranged wife and young daughter. All he needs is one big win.
But when his bet on the hometown team collapses, desperation drives him down a darker path. What begins as a small act of crime soon spirals into something far more dangerous—as Martin convinces himself he’s simply following God’s plan.
Meanwhile, when the agent of a star football player goes missing, Detective Shadeaux is called in. Then the player’s wife vanishes too, and the case explodes into chaos. But as Shadeaux closes in on the truth, his own buried secrets start to rise.
At the heart of it all lies a haunting question: do we shape our choices, or are we merely shaped by them?
Shadows Over Silent Screams
(L.A. Shadows Book 3)
Where does art end—and mayhem begin?
Elton Marshall, a celebrated painter, built his career on capturing life’s cruel contradictions. His impressionist canvases—equal parts joy and sorrow—are famed for evoking both hope and regret. But his work was always confined to galleries. Until now.
Someone in Los Angeles is bringing Elton’s art to life—literally. A killer is recreating the grim scenes from his paintings, turning artistic vision into blood-soaked reality.
Detective Jackson V. Shadeaux is assigned to the case. But as the murders escalate and clues begin to point toward deeper obsessions, Shadeaux finds himself haunted not only by the crimes, but by the shadows of his own past.
To stop the killer, Shadeaux must confront the line between beauty and brutality—and discover whether redemption is still possible when art imitates death.
