A Whisper Came

Dead in the Water

A young field agent goes missing while undercover at the U.S. Consulate in Perth, Western Australia. A veteran, but emotionally complicated investigator from the CIA's Investigator General's Office is sent to close the book on the case of the missing agent. Back in Washington, the investigator accidentally receives the dead agent's personal belongings in a bureaucratic foul-up. What he discovers among the personal effects upends the case and sends the investigator careening from Washington, to Europe and eventually into the dead, read desert of the Outback in search of a very uncomfortable truth.

Color of Blood

A modern fairy tale set in a small New England coastal community.

Best You

At the height of the Cold War, young Nick Halliday joins the CIA to distance himself from a family tragedy and to do his part in the patriotic fight against the communist menace. Rushed into his first undercover assignment in Panama in 1958, Nick finds himself mired in the humid, dripping world of deceit and lies. Pretending to be a leftist-leaning visiting professor at the University of Panama, Nick infiltrates an earnest, naïve group of leftist students bent on Panama regaining ownership of the canal. But Nick’s budding romance with Maria, a beautiful student activist, throws his mission sideways. The international clash of ideologies harshly intrudes on a young man’s love for a woman. Both are expendable pawns in a vast worldwide death match. Can they survive in a game that only values winning, whatever the cost? And what does winning mean, anyway?
