I've just inked a new contract with Schiffer Publishing to write a book about ghosts in Maryland. Although this isn't a deal for one of my mystery novels, I'm looking forward to digging into Marlyand's mysterious history. I've always been interested in ghosts, and I have written a paranormal short story on the side (see "The Legend Beneath the Coal Bin"), so I'm excited to begin on this project. I'll provide more details as the project unfolds.
