Enemy Queen

Wicked humor, artful eroticism, scintillating dialogue, and a baffling murder investigation—Enemy Queen is an exhilarating romp set in a North Carolina college town.

Cat’s Whisker

Evocative, emotionally moving, and intellectually stimulating, Cat’s Whisker probes human spirituality in a manner both revelatory and uplifting. A fascinating human journey of the mind, the flesh, and the soul.

Will’s Surreal Period

A rollickingly dysfunctional family, an array of succulent foodstuffs, and a brain tumor that transforms a mediocre painter into a virtuoso—Will’s Surreal Period is at times laugh-out-loud hilarious and at times deeply moving.
