    🏖️ Seaside café owner Sandy Shores is thrilled to host her small beach town's annual Sandcastle Contest, but the excitement washes away when the arrogant defending champion is found dead inside his elaborate sand fortress. The police suspect a tragic accident, but Sandy notices the sandcastle's architecture has been subtly sabotaged and the victim's prized golden shovel is missing. With the town's summer tourism at stake, Sandy must dig into the case with help from her quirky barista and the handsome marine biologist who runs the local tide pool tours. From suspicious tide patterns to hidden messages in the sand sculpture designs, every grain of evidence points toward a killer who knows the beach as well as Sandy does. But when she uncovers a network of buried secrets involving real estate schemes, old summer romances, and a missing treasure map, Sandy realizes this was more than just competitive sabotage. With the tide coming in and evidence literally washing away, Sandy must solve the case before the killer decides one beachside blunder isn't enough.

    ‘The Woman Who Rode Away’ is a dark, troubling story set in the wilderness of South America. What makes this story compelling is that the woman is at the end of her personal tether and the Indians are at the end of their cultural one, They seek one another out for terrible but perhaps predictable uses. Each of them looks to the other for "salvation" in a way that expresses the desperation and futility of their situation.

    Asian Shorts came about because of a sequence of events on one weekend in May 2015. A friend was telling me that he had several short stories with Asia as a backdrop, I was saying that I had a few as well, another friend sent me an email that he wanted to write a short on Pattaya, and one of my Thai cousins sent me her latest photo, the one on the cover of this book. 
    It was like somebody was trying to tell me something, or several were anyway.

    Paradise isn’t always what it’s cracked up to be. Few people know this as well as Jesse McDermitt, retired Marine and former government operative.  
    In the aftermath of an intense mission in coastal Mexico, Jesse wants nothing more than to get back to his boat; to just sail away and forget all about the firefight and his warrior past.  
    The Caribbean sun is warm, the azure water inviting, he has the woman of his dreams at his side, and everything seems to be smooth sailing.  
    Until a severed leg is found tangled in a line securing Jesse’s dinghy to his 61-foot sailing yacht, Salty Dog. The former owner of the appendage turns out to be the eighth victim of a lunatic who kills for money and a former Russian smuggler who won’t pass up a chance for one more big score.  
    Jesse is forced to don the warrior’s mask once again. This time to catch a ghoulish killer who is stalking the villages and jungles outside Belize City.

    A Spanish treasure ship is driven by a hurricane onto the rocky shoreline of Elbow Cay in September of 1566. Few of the crew survive, but they manage to salvage most of the treasure and bury it on the island, leaving a clue to its location in a chest placed in the boughs of a young mangrove tree. Four hundred forty years later, Jesse McDermitt and his friends solve the riddle that was hidden inside a chest found encased in the now-ancient mangrove. 
    When the head of the Miami-based Croatian mob learns about the treasure he goes to great lengths and expense, in an attempt to relieve Jesse and his friends of the riches. A demented, hyper-sexed island woman also wants it for her own, as does a hot-shot Miami attorney and his son, who is married to Jesse's estranged daughter. 
    As the body count grows, will the crew of Gaspar's Revenge find the treasure or become one of the island's statistics?
