Heron County Mysteries

Parish Rivers

New Release August 2026

Executioner's Psalms

When private investigator Erika Adams is assigned to find the missing son of a billionaire, it doesn't take long to discover that plenty of decent people had good reason to want him dead.

Suspected of being a serial sexual predator, the billionaire's son has left a trail of victims, shattered lives, and no shortage of enemies. Yet wealth sometimes lets extremely powerful men redefine the rules, and solving the case could earn Erika the influential ally she desperately needs to repair her unjustly derailed career.

Now needing to work alongside and simultaneously deceive the Sheriff of Heron County and a handful of his most trusted men, Erika discovers a web of long-hidden secrets reaching far beyond a single disappearance. As the investigation closes in on a killer, the full consequences of crossing the finish line may prove to be higher than she ever imagined. In the most difficult case of her life, will stopping a murderer be the worst crime of all.

Executioner's Psalms is the first novel in the Heron County Mysteries, a four-book story arc blending mystery, romance, lust, suspense, humor, and morally complex choices.
