The Shadow Sisters series

Ryana, a worthless girl-child, is sold to a mysterious woman who takes her to the home of the Shadow Sisters who are prized for their abilities as spies and assassins. She survives years of training in spite of being unconventional. As she completes her training, the Shadow Sisters are under attack.

The Shadow Ryran Book II

Ryana, a worthless girl-child, is sold to a mysterious woman who takes her to the home of the Shadow Sisters who are prized for their abilities as spies and assassins. She survives years of training in spite of being unconventional: adopting poisonous bats as familiars--something no one else would dare to do; choosing the blow dart as her weapon of choice--a weapon the Sisters don't teach; and relying on intuition rather than logic.

As she completes her training, the Shadow Sisters are under attack. The senior Sister selects Ryana to find out who is killing Sisters and why--because her intuitive approach has proved effective, even though her youth and inexperience makes it unlikely she can survive.

As she travels through the kingdom as a member of a gypsy clan, she finds the only way she can protect the Sisters and hope to discover the underlying plot is through ever more violence and killing. As she proceeds through the provinces, her secret enemies come to call her the Sister of Death and become desperate to find and kill her. But in her desperate fight to protect the Sisterhood, the gypsies she's come to love, and the kingdom, Ryana fears that she has destroyed herself and the only life she ever wanted.

Scales of Justice

A hundred years ago, a treaty joined the seven provinces under a king and created a system of equal justice for nobles and commoners. Under the treaty, the Sisters of Astraea were proclaimed the judicators of the land because they could tell truth from lie—a gift of a golden viper bestowed on the Sisters by the God Naga.

The treaty prevented a revolution by the commoners which would have ended the nobility. Now, however, many nobles want to go back to being above the law and Duke Chaney is using this discontent to raise an army against the king.

Mountain warriors raid Zara's village and make her a slave. That should have been her destiny, but Zara resists to the amusement of her captives, who let their young warriors train on her, assuming they would cripple or kill her eventually. But she survives the training and escapes--a savage warrior in a civilized land ruled by royalty.
Zara tries to avoid the nobility and their unrealistic "requests" to help wipe out the mountain tribes only to come to the attention of a duke and asked to save the daughter of a baron, who was captured in a recent raid. She succeeds in freeing the girl only to be given an assignment to investigate a group called Sirens--individuals capable of twisting the mind with illusions--who are intent on replacing the nobility. .

Talon of the Unnamed Goddess

Alisha is the newest Talon of the Raptor Clan, mercenaries prized by rulers, nobles, and the wealthy as elite bodyguards. Like all Talons, she survived five Ordeals and ten years of grueling training.
Alisha is not the strongest mercenary in the Raptor Clan, but she is the craftiest. Only tricking her opponents into underestimating her got her through the long years of Clan training. Those years honed her weapon skills, but not as much as her sharp wits. Even the ability she gets from the rune she was given by the Unknown Goddess depends on her guile.

Her first assignment for the Clan, to guard a young princess, requires all Alisha's skill, wit, and her newly acquired rune to keep the young heir to the kingdom alive.

The Raider clans have been defeated and their planet under the supervision of the Riss, with Captain Reese the station commander. But while Reese sees the Raider clans as on probation, many in the SAS task force she commands, perceive them as prisoners and hope to break the Treaty and get revenge.
As Nadya attempts to maintain the fragile peace, the three empires are being invaded. They know the invading force is far more technology advanced than the SAS. But who are they, where did they come from, and what do they want?
One thing appears certain. The SAS cannot defeat the aliens alone. But can they overcome their prejudices against the Riss, hatred of the clans, and long years of distrust of the other empires, to combine forces and technology to meet the challenge. The fate of the three empires, Riss, and the Raider clans may depend on it.

The Riss Accession Book IV

With invading aliens determined to confine humans to their planets, one thing is certain: the Aliens' force is technologically superior to the SAS, and even with the new Riss technology the clans have developed under Nadya Reese's supervision, the SAS cannot defeat them alone.

But forging an alliance between the SAS, UFN, and JPU will not be easy. It will require the empires to put aside their long history of border wars and mutual dislike. Worse, many in the SAS hate Riss-humans, especially Nadya. As a consequence, maintaining the Mutual Support Agreement between the Riss and the SAS is proving impossible. And then there is the issue of sharing technology with recent enemies, the question of leadership, and Nadya's involvement. The JPU only recently had bounties on Riss-humans, and Riss hides are prized in the UFN and JPU.

Nadya's not so sure the Alien's idea of confining the war-like humans to their planets isn't a good idea. But the fate of the Riss is tied to the humans, so whatever her doubts, she must act.

The Riss Challenge Book V

The combined forces of the Sadr Alliance of Stars (SAS), United Free Nations (UFN), and Jahaba Peoples Union (JPU) with help from the Riss have defeated the galaxy-traveling aliens. In the process, a friendly alliance has evolved between the SAS, UFN, and the Riss nations, and the SAS has agreed Freeland belongs to the Riss nation and is not in SAS space.
As a result, the Riss now have their own navy, mutual support agreements with the SAS and the UFN, a planet, and are free to explore the stars. Consequently, Nadya feels it's time that a new Leader be appointed—a Riss—to set the future for the Riss nation.
But the SAS and the UFN's navies encountered heavy losses defeating the Aliens and the JPU, with its larger and better equipped navy, sees a opportunity to conquer the SAS and UFN and to destroy the Riss, which they hate.
Fear is about to grip the empires and leave the Riss alone to defend themselves..

The Riss Enemies Book VI

The threat from the JPU has been eliminated and the empires should be at peace, but fractions within the SAS have revised old resentments against the Riss and Freeland. These anti-Riss groups have distorted the facts of the war with the JPU and dispute the Riss's right to quarantine JPU, insisting the SAS should have exclusive rights to the JPU and the Riss quarantined.

While the SAS plots against the Riss, an alien force enters SAS space and is annihilating inhabitable systems. The Riss attempt to form an alliance with the SAS and UFN to stop the alien invasion. But the threat from aliens isn't enough to avoid dissention and rebellion within the SAS.

Meanwhile, newly discovered humans in a neighboring section of the galaxy are at war with other aliens—close enough to eventually be a threat. The Riss must choose to remain neutral or get involved.

NOTE: Book VI in the Riss Series, The Riss Enemies, can be read as a standalone novel although it contains references to events in previous books.

Book V, The Riss Challenge, can also be read as a standalone although it contains references to events in previous books. It explains the war with the JPU and the reason for the quarantine.

Book III and IV, The Riss Survival and The Riss Accession, are best read together. They cover the invasion by an advance race of aliens using robots as hosts.

Desperate Measures

The Commonwealth of Stars, COS, has been invaded by the Issog, a bat-like species, who not only considers the humans animals but livestock. Over the past several years of war they have encroached farther into COS space and the consensus is for the Issog to defeat the Commonwealth within the next five years. To made matters worse, the Arrith nation, a lizard-like species, is building up its fleets to take on the winner—the bats or the monkeys as they refer to them--since the winner will have all but exhausted its navy.

The Commonwealth's only hope is a newly developed technology can help them defeat the Issog and have sufficient resources afterward to force the Arrith to continue their twenty year nonaggression treaty. But the technology is unproved and possibly beyond the humans' ability to adapt.

The Red Angel series

Five-year-old Anna should have died from a deadly virus along with her parents. Alone and desperate, she wants to die and join them in heaven. So when the little red-headed angel appears she begs, cajoles, and demands he take her to heaven. He could have but didn’t.
The little red head she mistook for an angel didn’t have wings, or a halo, or legs or arms. The little red head belonged to a poisonous krait—it should have been hibernating since it was winter and snowing, its bite should have killed her but didn’t, and it had no reason to stay with her but it did.  Anna and her krait have a symbiotic relationship that provides remission but not a cure.   Over the years, Anna comes to believe that the krait she calls Red not only keeps her alive but may contribute to her outstanding performance in school, her ability to solve puzzles, and to sense people’s strong emotions. Recognizing her talent, the Naval Intelligence Agency, NIA, hires her and assigns her to an elite team tasked with tracking down interstellar smugglers.

Red Angel Book I: Smugglers

Anna nearly dies, along with all her family, at age four from the deadly Cacao virus. But she survives, thanks to a poisonous red-headed krait. The medical community is excited since there is no known cure for the virus, but Anna and her snake, Red, have a symbiotic relationship--containment, not cure. If she is ever separated from Red, she will die.
Anna struggles through foster homes. As her krait becomes known and valuable throughout the three star empires as one of only a handful of such snakes, she fights off attempts to kill her and snatch Red. She even comes to wonder if her brilliance in school and eventually at deciphering code is somehow connected to her constant companion. When the Naval Intelligence Agency, the NIA, recruits her, her adventures grow beyond fending off thieves and killers to tracking down interstellar smugglers as part of an elite team, but the smuggling cartel are quick to fight back. In the midst of space battles and well-placed assassins, Anna is convinced that Red's presence may make the difference in survival or death, not just for her but her

Anna and her Naval Intelligence Agency, NIA, teammates have a new high-priority assignment: foreign raiders who are wreaking havoc within the United Alliance of Stars. They hit high value targets, have access to inside information, kill the security guards, and leave no witnesses.
The NIA team soon discovers the raiders' system has been well thought out and has no weak links. The raiders prove arrogant, resourceful, and in no hurry to leave. So when the raiders discover the NIA team assigned to catch them broke the smuggler's organization, their solution's simple--kill them.
With a Wanted-Dead-Only reward on their heads, the team finds nowhere is safe, even on a war cruiser, and realize the longer it takes to unravel the raiders' complex system of communications, the more the odds favor the raiders succeeding.
But the team has an ally who might just make the difference--a red angel.

Red Angel Book III, Hijackers

Anna's nice comfortable world is in turmoil. Because of their success in destroying the foreign Raiders, Anna, Kris, and Adrian were promoted to full commander, and the project team disbanded. Kris and Adrian were given NIA offices to manage on Stone Ring and Westar, and Anna is being pressured to move to Eastar to manage the NIA station. That would mean she would have to move away from home and Alexa, who Anna considers her refuge. In addition, she would be exposed to new people whose reactions to her are always unpredictable because of Anna’s red-headed krait and her young age. Probably worst of all, she would have responsibility for managing a NIA office when she has no management experience. And being the youngest commander in the Navy will inevitably cause resentment.
While trying to adjust to her new challenges, Anna discovers two potential perils that threaten the security of the United Alliance of Stars empire. Separately, they are each as dangerous as the Raiders were. Together, they not only threatened the fabric of the empire, but they are exponentially more dangerous to Anna—the bloodhound who discovered the threats and is doggedly pursuing them.

Red Angel Book IV, The Red Admiral

Anna is now a rear admiral much to her horror. She had finally become comfortable being the Eastar NIA Station Chief. She had been successful in the position, made good friends, and found bad guys to chase and puzzles to solve.
But that success had catapulted her into the position of Director of the NIA stations–all thirteen–and far out of her comfort zone. Ironically, Anna finds herself bored–admirals don't do work, they give it to someone to do. And she has a master chief as a secretary, a lieutenant aide-de-camp, and thirteen commanders and their staff to do the work. But she suspects not all of her commanders support their new, very young admiral, or are doing their jobs, or are competent. But has no way to resolve the feeling as those commanders are on twelve distant systems, giving them a great deal of autonomy.

A personal request from Admiral Webb to look into a friend's missing daughter solves the bored problem and provides an excuse to visit her NIA stations. The subsequent investigation uncovers a criminal organization which has been kidnapping women across the UAS for the past six years.
