Steve's first stand-alone novel is
available in both the US and the UK
Joe Trumbull is a probation officer with a tragedy in his past.
Two years ago his fiancée was brutally killed three days before
their wedding. No one has yet been caught. As the story opens,
Joe is heading for a blind date with Marlene, a jewelry
designer, his first encounter with a woman since his late
fiancée Laurel's death. The evening is a success, but next day
Marlene is reported missing and, two days later, her body is
found. As the last person to see her alive, Joe is at the very
least a material witness and, as the evidence mounts and another
body is found, suspicions begins to center on him.

Steve TALKS ABOUT
HIS NEXT BOOK IN AN "At Home Online"
interview for Mystery Readers International.
If you didn't catch my original short story,
A Shovel With My Name On It, in the sadly now-defunct e-zine,
Plots with Guns, you can read it
here.
Filmmaker Nick Childs adapted it into a short film starring
David Strathairn and it went on to win Best Narrative Short
at the Tribeca Film Festival, Special Jury Award at the USA Film
Festival, and the Gold Remi Awardat the Houston
World Fest!

The seventh Alex McKnight novel is a finalist for the coveted Nero Award! Now available in the US and the UK!
It's an unusually frigid Fourth of July, even for the Upper
Peninsula of Michigan. But that doesn't stop Alex McKnight, Leon
Prudell, and a few of their buddies, from diving into Lake
Superior's Waishkey Bay, hoping to save three madmen who've
plowed their boat into fog-obscured pilings. Like a Pandora's
box, or a deadly game of dominoes, this one good deed kicks off
a series of violent consequences. Undercover cops, illegal arms,
and drug running -- who needs fireworks on the 4th?
