Meet Reed Ferguson, Denver's wittiest new detective.

"I was halfway through the first chapter when I did something I rarely do - I laughed out loud. From the first chapter, I was hooked." ~Amazon Review


This Doesn't Happen In The Movies (A Reed Ferguson Mystery #1)

Why would a man with no problems and five million dollars in the bank disappear? If I had that kind of money, I'd be sipping cocktails on a beach, not playing hide-and-seek with a woman who wants answers.

I should have run when Amanda Ghering walked into my detective agency, but when a woman who looks like a femme fatale from a film noir movie asks for help, what's a guy to do? Besides, I needed the money. So I took the job -- my first real case: tracking down her husband Peter, who disappeared without a trace three weeks ago. As beautiful and wealthy as she is dark and dangerous, Amanda's convinced he's been murdered. Who could have wanted him dead?
Before long, it's clear there's more to this case than meets the eye. Amanda's story keeps changing, and if the lies, double-crosses, and shadowy threats weren't enough, I was starting to feel like I'd wandered into a bad movie -- one where the detective doesn't make it to the final reel.

My first case might just be my last -- if I don't crack it before my luck runs out.

Reel Estate Rip-off (A Reed Ferguson Mystery #2)
A real estate agent who didn't like cycling or heights dies after riding off a cliff in the Colorado mountains, and the police label it suicide. Is a killer on the loose? Someone is determined to keep the details of the death hidden, and searching for the truth might cost Reed his life.

The Maltese Felon (A Reed Ferguson Mystery #3)
When a client begs Reed to find the prize-winning Maltese show dog stolen from her back yard, Reed suspects he may be channeling Ace Ventura: Pet Detective rather than his hero, Humphrey Bogart. It sounds like a simple case, but when a ransom drop goes awry, and more valuable dogs go missing, Reed discover man's best friend can attract some decidedly unfriendly characters.

Elvis And The Sports Card Cheat (A Reed Ferguson Mystery Short Story)
Perry Rawlings, an Elvis impersonator discovers his prize Mickey Mantle baseball card stolen. Can Reed track down the culprit?
