I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn.

Sixteen-year-old Reid thinks life is back to normal. His sister Lucy pulls herself together and cuts him free from a year of foster care. She promises to take care of him, that her new boss and her new life are what they both needed to start again. Until Reid is taken in the middle of the night, dumped in a wild stretch of forest far from home with no idea why he is there. Lost and afraid, he learns to run from the hunters who prowl the darkness, their only pleasure chasing down kids like him. And killing them.

HUNTED Series

The forest is so familiar Reid is almost comfortable perched on the limb of the tree he's chosen. Who would have thought 


six days ago he was safe and sound, living with his sister Lucy in her new and expensive apartment, no longer in foster 


care? It amazes him when he reflects on it and wonders if he'll ever be comfortable indoors again.


He glances at the back of his hand where a small bug trundles with purpose across his skin to get to the other side. 


Birds sing softly in the midday heat, while the leaves above rustle from a passing wind. Reid feels a connection to the 


tree, like the sap flowing within it is his own blood. The song of the robin in the spruce next door is almost 


translatable into words. The fresh air swells his lungs, fills him with calm and purpose.


He's a far cry from the drugged and kidnapped kid dumped in the darkened woods with no idea what was happening to him.
