I wrote my first book Bricked after teaching in a school for at-risk students. Pat Riordan, the protagonist in my mystery trilogy, was introduced in this novel. In the second book of the trilogy, The Slip Swing, Riordan, the teacher, has also taken on the role of an amateur shamus while having been named a person of interest in a missing woman case.
Detective Sergeant Donald Cromwell says Riordan is also likely guilty in the disappearance of two other women. Fired from his teaching position, Riordan sets out to exonerate himself as Cromwell builds a case against him. Accompanied by a stray dog, Riordan prods onward through unexplained encounters. Pieces start to fall into place, but answers lead to more questions.
The Slip Swing has a paranormal bent, driven by hard dialogue, reflecting my years working in the criminal justice system and my experiences as a teacher. My intent was to provide a fresh twist for the reader of mysteries and for the detective in all of us.
In between those jobs, I worked as a college speech instructor, a freelance writer, a newspaper reporter and a high school teacher. I took time-out to travel overseas, hike the Grand Canyon several times and return to school to earn three master degrees.
The young girl's death decades ago also prompted me to become a "paperback writer" of mysteries.
As an investigator for 15 years, I heard first-hand stories from men who committed crimes. Later, as a mental health therapist at a prison, I developed a keen ear for hard and realistic dialogue.
I wrote my first book Bricked after teaching in a school for at-risk students. Pat Riordan, the protagonist in my trilogy, was introduced in this novel.
While Bricked is fictional, the episodes and mannerisms of the characters personify life inside a school for disenfranchised youth.
In the follow-up novels, The Slip Swing and The Cues, Riordan, the teacher, has also taken on the role of an amateur shamus.
The Slip Swing has a paranormal bent. The third book, The Cues, finds Riordan uncovering facts surrounding an unsolved murder and the whereabouts of local missing women.
Each book is driven by hard dialogue, reflecting my years working in the criminal justice system and my experiences as a teacher.
My intent was to provide a fresh twist for the reader of mysteries and for the detective in all of us. Visit my webpage to learn more about the Pat Riordan trilogy.
