The Jimmy McSwain Files
by
NEW REISSUED, WITH NEW COVER ART!
When Jimmy McSwain is hired to find missing heir Harris Rothschild, he finds that identities can be altered and lives can be changed--or taken with the simple pull of the trigger.
Jimmy McSwain is a New York City private detective, operating out of Hell's Kitchen, the rough and tumble neighborhood he grew up in. At age fourteen, he watched as his NYPD father was gunned down. Now, at age twenty-eight, gay, Jimmy has never given up pursuit of whoever killed him. But a PI must make a living, and so he's taken on the case of missing heir Harris Rothschild, whose overbearing father doesn't approve of his "alternate" lifestyle.Tracking down Harris is easier than expected, but the carnage that follows isn't. With a shocking murder on his hands, and a threat coming from some unforeseen person, Jimmy's caseload is suddenly full, and very dangerous.

AUTHOR’S NOTE:
I am pleased to return to print!
After my initial publisher ceased operations, all rights were reverted to me.
Fortunately, I found a new home with JMS Books, and they have reissued all of the Jimmy McSwain Files. The all have new covers: HIDDEN IDENTITY, CRIME WAVE, STAGE FRIGHT, GUARDIAN ANGEL, FOREVER HAUNT, FRESH KILL, and SECOND SHOT.
And finally, this year I finished the eighth book in the series, FALSE JUSTICE, which JMS released this fall, first in eBook, with a paperback edition coming soon.
For fans of the series, I hope you’ll find FALSE JUSTICE a satisfying continuation of the series. For new readers, I recommend that you read the books in order to get the full effect of the ongoing story of Jimmy and all the supporting characters.
Also newly reissued is my “Cane’s Inlet Mystery” series: SCANDLOUS LIES, SINISTER MOTIVES, and SUSPICIOUS TRUTHS. Again, best read in order. Books 1 and 2 end on cliffhangers, with a resolution at the end of Book 3. It’s a good old-fashioned soap opera, with a sexy and mysterious edge.
There are new projects in the works, including a forthcoming novella called COMING/ARRIVAL, featuring Johnny Lee Capstone, of my DUDE RANCH series.
There’s a collaboration with another author, which will feature Jimmy McSwain and another character named Todd Gleason. More info on JERSEY SCORE soon!
Then it’s time to continue writing PERFECT DEATH, the 9th book in The Jimmy McSwain Files.
Happy reading, and thanks for the continued support.
