Cut & Run has made it into the next stage of voting.

This is a huge undertaking by elisa_rolle, and even though I have a few titles nominated, I would be posting this link regardless because it's a fun thing. And even if you don't vote for anyone, it's a great way to find some excellent fiction.

Cut & Run and Warrior's Cross have both been nominated, both in the same categories.

For those of you who enjoyed Cut & Run and are patiently (or not so patiently) awaiting the sequel, Sticks & Stones, I have a website for you.



T-shirt Hell is where most of Ty Grady's T-shirts come from in the novels. Yes, most of them are real shirts, and yes, they will be back in Sticks & Stones!

( Click for a sneak peek of one of them. )

You can find almost all of Ty's T-shirts at this place, and probably some you'd like to wear too. They even have a section for children's shirts. It would take some balls to wear most of them in public, I can tell you that much!

Cut & Run has been nominated in the Preditors & Editors Readers Poll for Best Mystery!

Available September 29th:






A series of murders in New York City has stymied the police and FBI alike, and they suspect the culprit is a single killer sending an indecipherable message. But when the two federal agents assigned to the investigation are taken out, the FBI takes a more personal interest in the case.

Special Agent Ty Grady is pulled out of undercover work after his case blows up in his face. He's cocky, abrasive, and indisputably the best at what he does. But when he's paired with Special Agent Zane Garrett, it's hate at first sight. Garrett is the perfect image of an agent: serious, sober, and focused, which makes their partnership a classic cliché: total opposites, good cop-bad cop, the odd couple. They both know immediately that their partnership will pose more of an obstacle than the lack of evidence left by the murderer.

Practically before their special assignment starts, the murderer strikes again – this time at them. Now on the run, trying to track down a man who has focused on killing his pursuers, Grady and Garrett will have to figure out how to work together before they become two more notches in the murderer's knife.
