Nick Midnight, homicide detective, just got transferred to New York City.

The government owns him. Then again, humans own all vampires these days. Cops are “Midnights.” Scientists “Galileos.” Soldiers “Centurions.”

Things will be different in New York. No complications. No kids needing his help. None of that human-vampire-psychic crap that turned him evil for nearly a century. He’d keep his head down, do his job for the NYPD, and hunt down murderers.

But Nick’s first big case involves an illegal species that could get him killed. And another kid who needs his help. Because of course.

Then Wynter James shows up. A gorgeous, sexy, seer-human hybrid, Wynter treats Nick like she already knows him, like they’ve known one another for years. Nick wants her, bad, but he’d be a fool to go there, and not only because she’s a potential suspect in his case. Just dating her would break the law and could get them both killed.

She’s Nick’s worst nightmare. She’s everything he swore he’d never do again.

Meanwhile, the case keeps going sideways⏤more dead hybrid kids, graffiti that tells the future, a conspiracy involving the richest humans in New York. If Nick can’t find some way through he’ll end up back on the run, in that dark place he thought he’d finally left behind.

Includes the following books:

Description of BLACK IN WHITE (Quentin Black Mystery #1):

“My name is Black. Quentin Black.”

Gifted with an uncanny sense about people, psychologist Miri Fox works as an off and on profiler for the police. So when they think they finally nailed the “Wedding Killer,” she agrees to check him out, using her gift to discover the truth.

But the suspect, Quentin Black, isn’t anything like Miri expects.

He claims to be hunting the killer too, and the longer Miri talks to him, the more determined she becomes to uncover his secrets.

When he confronts her about the nature of her peculiar “insight,” Miri gets pulled into Black’s bizarre world, and embroiled in a game of cat and mouse with a deadly killer––who might just be Black himself.

Worse, she finds herself irresistibly drawn to Black, a complication she doesn’t need with a best friend who’s a homicide cop and a boyfriend in intelligence.

Can Miriam see a way out or is her future covered in Black?

Description of BLACK AS NIGHT (Quentin Black Mystery #2):

“He will break anything you try to keep pure, brother.”

When her now-employer, psychic detective, Quentin Black, calls from a Bangkok jail, asking for her help, forensic psychologist, Miri Fox, is forced to fly across the world to get him.

She finds Black working undercover inside a gang of criminals, trying to discover who’s murdering street children and burning their bodies inside Buddhist temples.

Black isn’t the only one interested in the crimes, however, and soon his investigations get the attention of a crime syndicate out of Russia that doesn’t appreciate his meddling.

When Miri shows up to help, events quickly spiral out of control, and Miri soon finds herself the hunted.

Description of BLACK ON BLACK (Quentin Black Mystery #3):

“What kind of confession are you looking for, brother…?”

Black disappears, leaving Miri alone in San Francisco mere days after they return from Bangkok.

No explanation. Not a word about where he is, what he’s doing, what his mysterious new contract entails or even who he’s working for.

Black will only drop cryptic hints, leaving her breadcrumbs.

Miri can feel him, though. More every day.

She feels so much through her dreams and into her waking life that her world starts to spin out of control, especially when things between Black and his new employer begin to sour.

Black’s in danger, although he won’t admit that, either.

Only Miri can save him. But to help Black, she has to cross lines she swore she’d never cross, exposing herself in a way that will change her life forever.
