A native son of Massachusetts, Peter has been living in the Deep South for over 25 years. By day, he’s an insurance professional, saving the world one policy at a time. But at night, well, no one really wants to see him fighting crime in his Spider-Man onesie. Instead, Peter develops new worlds of adventure influenced by his love of science fiction, mysteries, music and fantasy. Whether it’s running role-playing games for his long-time friends, watching his beloved New England sporting teams vie for another championship, or just chilling with a movie, his wife, two boys, three cats and one dog, Peter’s imagination is always on the move. It’s the reason why his stories are an eclectic blend of intrigue, excitement, humor and magic, drawn from four decade’s worth of television, film, novels and comic books.
BLOODLINES is Peter’s debut novel, following former hotshot homicide detective Tom “Doc” Holliday and his new team of eclectic investigators as they hunt an inhuman killer.
PIECES OF EIGHT, the second book in the Guardian of Empire City series has Doc, Deacon, Leyla and Besim chasing a bloody trail of mutilated corpses perpetrated by the victim of a 30-year old murder case, seemingly risen from the dead. This story takes place along the mean streets of Brighton Beach, also known as Little Odessa, and delves deeper into Doc’s sordid family history.
