About Expect Deception

Just when U.S. WAVE Livvy Delacourt thinks she and her team of psychic Nazi hunters are ready for whatever The Reich can throw at them, Hitler adds to the mix a spy who also happens to be a wizard. Now dark magic is being used to attack U.S. facilities and Livvy must match wits with the evil wizard, whose objective is to destroy Operation Delphi and all her team. If she fails to ramp up her psychic powers, she may perishand perhaps cause the U.S. to lose the war with Germany while shes at it.

I write stories for readers who enjoy gripping suspense in authentic historical settings, with WWII spies inserted into an atmosphere of other-worldly experiences, and told in the style of an Agatha Christy cozy but at the pace of a thriller.

You can find my previous books on Amazon, Barns & Noble, Books a Million (BAM), or from an independent bookstore near you.
