I write slow-burn forensic mysteries where evidence is only the beginning. I've always been fascinated by the places where history, memory, and official records don't quite agree. A missing document, an overlooked photograph, or a forgotten archive can sometimes reveal far more than a witness ever could. That curiosity became the foundation of the Frankie Voss series. Francesca "Frankie" Voss isn't a detective. She's a forensic consultant who reconstructs truth from evidence, documentation, and records that were never meant to be questioned. She doesn't chase criminals. She follows what institutions leave behind. Every novel takes Frankie to a different city—Budapest, Tokyo, Istanbul, New York, and Saint Petersburg—where forgotten files, sealed archives, and decades-old investigations uncover crimes hidden beneath bureaucracy, history, and institutional silence. These aren't fast-paced action thrillers. They're slow-burn forensic mysteries where atmosphere, investigation, and moral ambiguity matter just as much as the mystery itself. They're stories about reconstruction rather than pursuit, about evidence rather than confession, and about the quiet persistence required to uncover the truth. If you enjoy the novels of Tana French, Kate Atkinson, John le Carré, or Mick Herron, I hope you'll enjoy Frankie's investigations as well. Free City Reading Companions, book club discussion guides, and additional background material are available on my website.
