A New Adventure

I'd like to introduce you to Riley, my new furry sidekick in the metaphysical mystery novels I'm going to be writing.

A few months ago, a brilliant idea for a story grabbed me and wouldn't let go. Then life got in the way and the project was sidetracked. Which turned out to be a good thing, because the story took a vastly different turn. It was originally going to be a cozy mystery, but then a lost civilization, filled with ancient wisdom, collided with future technology, and somehow found its way into the story.
