Chet Baker

I love writing dramatic fiction: thrillers, suspense, and mystery. Sometimes my stories have all three of those elements wrapped around some psychological catastrophe. My latest novel, published August 2024, NATALIE'S WAY is a psychological thriller of a Mensa smart girl on the run with childhood baggage, a fearless attitude and countless ways to get into trouble. It's fast-paced with criminal elements, chock full of bad guys, and filled with suspense: escaping murder, kidnapping, blackmail, mob boss revenge, and connecting with a pimp, conman she doesn't know what to think of. Is her mind too brilliant to find peace? Is death her only escape to tranquility?

My debut novel BLOODLINE RUN, a psych thriller launched on November 21. It's deeply disturbing. Dissacoiative Identity, genetic transference from a soiled preacher into his son. Kirkus Reviews-"A devious, if occasionally melodramatic, psychological thriller. The faint of heart should probably stay away, but fans of dark, cerebral horror tales will likely enjoy unraveling this one."

My next project is a post-apocalyptic thriller set in Colorado. Set to publish in 2025.

Northern Colorado is my home and writing desk. The University of New Mexico is my alma mater. When not writing, I'm probably trying to shoot my age on the golf course, playing racquetball or pickleball. Or maybe fly fishing on one of the many beautiful waters of Wyoming or Colorado. I'm a downhill skier and a pretty good cook. Especially Mexican food, which I learned living in Albuquerque for more than 20 years. Hope you read one of my books. I'm proud of them. And if you like it, or even if you don't, write an honest review on Amazon.Thanks! Stay safe out there.
