  When Dara Banks, Rock Canyon's leading Realtor, searches for an assistant, finding someone as resourceful as Meryl "Merry" Rafter seems too good to be true. So good in fact, she neglects to run a reference check. Bad move. Before she knows it, Merry, a former "actress" trying to be "helpful," has insinuated herself into Dara's business, family, and charity, and may be the only person saving her from prison. Dara becomes suspicious and begins snooping into Merry's past. Feeling cornered, Merry reciprocates by launching an investigation of her own and realizes—too late—that she may have picked the wrong mark to con. These women's unsettling discoveries, and their desperate efforts to safeguard their skeleton-filled closets and fragile self-images, lead to an explosive confrontation certain to destroy the lives of everyone in their midst.

  DAN+ABBY - Scenes from a City Park

  If you like people watching, this is one is for you.  
  DAN+ABBY is a novel made up of 52 flash fiction chapters. The title comes from graffiti scratched into wet cement decades ago in an Arizona city park. The park visitors, activities and art inspired this anthology of a year's worth (52) of short-short stories. One story each month updates Dan and Abby's lives since he scratched their names on a footbridge in 1968. Each story stands alone; together, they are a portrait of a community in the manner of Spoon River Anthology by Edgar Lee Masters. 
  All of the images in this project were taken with the author’s cell phone camera. The images are presented in grayscale in the paperback edition, and in color in the Kindle edition. A book club guide is available. 
  The DAN+ABBY project began as a 12-month series on Wattpad.com that concluded in June 2018. The collection includes character sketches, candid images, quick scenes and sometimes longer pieces. 
  About found fiction 
  Found fiction uses people watching as a starting point for literary writing. The stories in DAN+ABBY are woven from imagination. 
  These stories are not intended to represent actual people or events, and the images are used outside of their original context. In all but one case, the author never interacted with the situations shown in the images and had no direct knowledge of what the subjects were actually doing or thinking. 
  In short: DAN+ABBY is fiction. It’s not about anybody in particular. It’s about everybody.
