Introducing the newest 
Owen McKenna mystery! 

 "AN ACTION-PACKED THRILLER"
- Kirkus Reviews 6-15-09

Coming August 1st, 2009!


TAHOE NIGHT

Leah Printner had a thriving career as a TV talk show host until a car accident killed her husband and scarred her face, ending her career. 

When her father is murdered and the killer makes an attempt on her life, Detective Owen McKenna rushes her into hiding on a sailboat anchored out on the freezing waters of Lake Tahoe. 

As McKenna investigates, he learns that the murder is connected to an art forgery of old-master paintings, and that the killers have a fixation on Grendel, the fictional monster from the ancient, epic poem, Beowulf.

McKenna races to New York City, then to Santa Fe, and back to Tahoe to unravel a puzzle dating back to 17th Century Holland. Five mysterious paintings are connected to a vicious killer who believes that Grendel will pay him richly, if only he succeeds in killing the woman...
