When a string of supernatural murders puts Agent Mendoza on the trail of a bizarre and deadly creature, he’ll stop at nothing to make the beast pay! Something sinister lurks in the shadows of Austin, Texas—and it hungers for blood. Agent Mendoza’s superiors say it’s a vamp, and to let the local coven handle their own messes. Despite their orders, Tony Mendoza can’t leave well enough alone. That’s because he’s seen things—dark, deadly creatures, the kind that make you want to keep the lights on at night. He knows what it’s like to be hunted, and he can’t simply stand by when innocent lives are at stake. The more Mendoza searches for answers, the stranger the case becomes, and soon he’s convinced that this is no run of the mill vampire. If he doesn’t stop it, the creature will leave a trail of corpses that'll make the current body count look like kindergarten math. Green as he is, Agent Mendoza has no idea if he’s the man for the job. But one thing’s for certain… he’s determined to end the murders or die trying. Because when a supernatural being breaches the laws of magic, only C.E.R.B.E.R.U.S. stands ready to make things right!

I write urban fantasy, paranormal suspense, and dark fantasy novels. My first series, THEM, is a jaunt through a post-apocalyptic central Texas where the dead walk, and vampires, werewolves and other unsavory creatures roam the night. It has elements of the zompoc genre, dark fantasy, and military survival fiction. My goal with this series was to give readers the same excitement I get from reading books by Larry Correia, Jonathan Maberry, and J.L. Bourne. On the other hand, my Colin McCool series falls squarely between urban fantasy and paranormal suspense. Colin's world is full of magic, mystery, and folklore come to life. I wrote this series because I love reading books by authors like Patricia Briggs, Kevin Hearne, Jim Butcher, and Neil Gaiman. And, like most authors, I try to write stories that I would enjoy reading. I currently live in the Hill Country near Austin, Texas, which is where much of my fiction is set. Most days you can find me in a local coffee shop or in my office working on my next book, or in my garage pummeling inanimate objects.
