74,000 words
Literary
What if you had the power to free an innocent man from death row, but you believed him to be evil? In one hundred and ninety-two days, New Mexico State Prison inmate Trey Mitchell will be lethally injected. Only Macy Sanders, his childhood best friend, can save him from execution. She was there the day two undercover officers were shot and killed. In an attempt to protect her from prosecution, however, Trey swore her to secrecy. Now, he needs her to come forward, but Macy has disappeared.
Three weeks away from getting married, Macy won’t risk being discovered if it means Trey could go free. Her fiancé knows nothing about her past with Trey, and Trey’s personality since he’s been imprisoned leads Macy to believe she could become his victim. Now, Macy must decide which is stronger—her love for Trey, or her fear of him.
“Toxic Leaks”
rough draft = 73,000 words
Mystery
“Toxic Leaks” stars CJ Maroon, a private detective who’s just solved Boulder County’s case of the year, earning him prestige and a weekend of drinking beer and eating burgers in his hometown of Durango, Colorado. What could possibly screw up his plans for relaxation? Radioactive material seeping into the water supply for the local Southern Ute Indians, and a Senator’s dead body.
Navigating through temperamental FBI agents, a nosy professor of political science, and protesting political activists, CJ tries to find the link between the two. To complicate things further, Lisa Holland, CJ’s ex-girlfriend and the love of his life, shows up in town.
