In Death's Wake: Book 1 of The Corvus Chronicles
Gabriel grew up in an average life and was perfectly happy to keep to the shadows. Now, in the late 21st century he is drafted into the second American Civil War. Unknown to him, events had been set into motion that would sign away his life. Selected for mental experiments to see into the minds of the dead, he is discharged from the army like many other test subjects. The experiments have killed many test subjects and the project has been disbanded. After being sent home, Gabriel signs on with the local police force to use his new abilities to make a little money on the side, but did the experiments do more damage than he thought?
Now in a race against time to stop a serial killer who will do anything to bring him down, Gabriel must be willing to lose everything, including his sanity, to stop the murders. What are the wraiths that haunt his dreams? Can he protect those he loves from monsters both real and imaginary? Did Gabriel stumble onto more than he bargained for when he got caught up in death’s wake?
Bedlam: Book 2 of The Corvus Chronicles
Three years. Three years have passed since the events in Austin and Gabriel still hasn’t found his way back home. He is comfortable and safe on the coast, but all good things must end. A call from an old friend sends Gabriel back to Austin in the hunt for the murderer of a Corvus. This small event drags him back into the world he tried so hard to escape.
They say dead men tell no tales, but that isn’t always true. One case turns into a race for his life and the lives of all his fellow Corvus as an old enemy awakens. With his sanity perched on the edge of a blade he must stay alive even as the body count rises. Why is he seeing the dead wandering the streets? Can he survive when his past comes haunting? Can he live long enough to learn the secrets from the souls of the dead?
From The Ashes: Book 3 of The Corvus Chronicles

Then, in a race against the clock and with their lives up for grabs, Gabriel and Pandora raise the stakes in the belly of the beast. As the chronicles races onward, they put everything on the line as the inferno heats up. Who will perish in the flames of Project Phoenix and who will survive to rise from the ashes?
Dreams of Life: Book 4 of The Corvus Chronicles
Five years. Five years and the loss still affects Pandora. She has settled into a normal life in Savannah as a nurse. Terrorist attacks tear though the country in the wake of another civil war. It is then that a call from her past shatters her new life.
A favor is all that is asked. A favor that will pull her back into the memories of Colorado and Texas. A favor that will put her sanity, and even her life, at risk. When she thought she was moving on, she was only dreaming of life.
The Asylum Within: Book 5 of The Corvus Chronicles
One month. One month since Pandora died, or so she thinks. The repercussions of pushing her abilities too far were costly. Pandora sits in St. Dymphna Asylum under the belief she died a month earlier. As she struggles with her demons, and her friends move forward with struggles of their own. Death and revelation plague them. Meanwhile Pandora fights for her sanity. Will the revelations push her friends over the edge? Will Pandora be able to see the truth that life isnÍt over? Long dead allies show their faces to a suffering Pandora in an attempt to get her out of the asylum when the real asylum is within.
Through the Veil: Book 6 of The Corvus Chronicles
The veil is fluctuating. In the land of the dead, purgatory is empty. In the land of the living, nightmares are coming to life.
In one world, Pandora is trying to get back to a normal life. As normal as solving crimes with the help of suspects dreams can be. But just when she is settling back in, dreams begin coming to life when the dreamer is wide awake.
In the other world, Gabriel finds himself in an afterlife void of souls. He begins his own investigation to figure out what has gone wrong with the veil between worlds. His travels take him through the remnants of Eden and across deserted landscapes. What will he find? Could his investigation bring him, too, back to the world of the living?
