The Dead Don't Dream
2023
A psychologist must decide whether her sleepwalking patient is a victim or a brutal serial killer in this unpredictable psychological thriller.
A night to remember… if you make it out alive.
Psychologist Maggie Connolly didn’t just stumble into trouble—she was born into it. Her humanitarian but slightly shady parents had no problem breaking the law when it served the greater good. Helping domestic violence victims escape their abusers by vanishing them over state lines might not be exactly aboveboard, but Maggie knows right and wrong don’t always fall within the confines of the law.
So she doesn’t immediately panic when her newest client presents with a suspicious set of symptoms. Tristan Simms claims to be a sleepwalker who has no idea what he does in the nighttime hours, though the wounds on his hands and grime beneath his fingernails indicate he’s doing anything but resting. He also believes that the police are stalking him and asserts that he made his money peddling the secrets of others. He might be a delusional whack job—it’s a clinical term.
But her assessment shifts when a series of bodies are discovered. Stranger, the timeline for the murders matches that of her patient’s sleepwalking episodes.
With the body count rising, and threats mounting from all sides, Maggie is running out of choices—and time. It seems that Maggie’s next on the kill list. And only one thing connects the victims: her patient, with his head full of secrets, his fingernails dark with blood.
Intense, addictive, and full of complex and darkly hilarious characters you’ll never get enough of, Mind Games is a fast-paced psychological crime series for fans of Alex Cross, Lie to Me, and The Blacklist.

The Dead Don't Mind
2023
A mute child holds the key in this addictive serial killer thriller for fans of Dark Places.
Maggie Connolly never intended to work with the police, but Detective Reid Hanlon’s latest homicide case requires the expertise of a shrink. What’s a detective to do with an eight-year-old boy who hasn’t said a word since he watched his family’s brutal murder?
But Maggie never expected treating the boy would drag her into a serial killer’s crosshairs.
When Maggie’s elderly father is brutally attacked, evidence left at the scene indicates that he knows the suspect. Did her psychologist father treat their killer before his dementia diagnosis? Like the child in her care, her dad can’t tell them what he saw—he doesn’t even remember Maggie. But both the mute child and Maggie’s father are in mortal danger if they can’t provide a description—even if they can’t identify him, this killer has never before left a witness alive. And it soon becomes apparent that Reid and Maggie did not come upon this case accidentally; they were chosen as pawns in a madman’s game, one stretching back decades to the time her father was in practice.
Their killer is meticulous, determined, and worst of all, patient.
And Maggie’s blood is now part of his end game.
Intense, addictive, and chock full of well-developed and darkly hilarious characters you’ll never get enough of, Mind Games is a fast-paced psychological crime series for fans of Alex Cross, Lie to Me, and The Blacklist.

The Dead Don't Worry
2024
How do you catch a serial killer who knows you better than you know yourself? An addictive crime thriller for fans of Dark Places.
Still reeling from the discovery of her brother’s body, psychologist Maggie Connolly is hopeful that her life might finally settle down. Tough break—her work as a police consultant rarely lets up.
But she’s never had a case like this.
When a body is discovered, Maggie is sucked into a bloody game of cat and mouse. The victim bears an uncanny resemblance to Maggie herself. And the next victim is a man she’s slept with, his body brutalized in the same manner as the first. Why does the killer remove their eyelids? And what of the numbers scored into the victims’ flesh?
It seems the killer is crossing names off a list, starting with the periphery, then tightening like a noose around Maggie’s inner circle, and at an alarming pace. They barely have time to breathe before a new body drops. And the police don’t have a shred of evidence—no one has seen the killer’s face.
As she’s pulled deeper into the killer’s world, Maggie realizes that the truth is more terrifying than anything she could have imagined. This is obsession in its most savage and unrelenting form. If she can’t unmask this madman, neither Maggie nor anyone she loves will make it out alive.
Addictive, intense, with a breakneck pace and jaw-dropping twists you’ll never see coming, The Dead Don’t Worry is a riveting psychological crime thriller for fans of Caroline Kepnes, Gillian Flynn, and Prodigal Son.
