The third (and final) Lake Prophet mystery is here! I've had so much fun writing this cozy mystery series with RJ Scott. I've always loved mysteries, and it's pure pleasure for me to plot them out. I also fell in love with the characters in this series. Those who have followed may know that I write Tiber Russo, the animal behaviorist, and RJ writes the hunky sheriff, Gabriel Thompson.
It's only natural that Tiber fell for the wounded, haunted Gabe. He's a rescuer thru and thru. But it's Gabriel that usually ends up saving Tiber when there's a killer on the loose. And that's been happening all too often in the sleepy small town of Prophet, Washington.
In this third installment, we see the solidity of the relationship that's developed between Tiber and Gabriel. But there's a whole lot coming against them this time around.

BLURB:
A killer haunts Prophet, and this time it’s personal
The discovery of a body at Thompson Cabins sets off a chain of events that hits too close to home for Sheriff Gabriel Thompson. When his brother Sam becomes a prime suspect in the murder investigation, Gabriel is forced to keep secrets from Tiber and call in outside help as he fights to prove Sam’s innocence. It’s a nightmare that becomes all consuming.
Tiber Russo, animal whisperer, is dealing with problems of his own. A stalker threatens him and his entire menagerie of pets. With Gabriel wrapped up in the new case, Tiber tries to solve the mystery on his own. Who in the sleepy town of Prophet wants to do him harm? But when the threats turn lethal, Tiber finds himself in over his head.
Tiber and Gabriel have solved two murders together and started a deep relationship. But this time the forces ranged against them are personal and the target is on them and on the backs of everyone they love. With each of them isolated trying to protect the other, their strength is diminished. Even with the love they share, can they make it out of this alive?
I hope you guys enjoy this one! Eli
It's release day for "Desperately Seeking Santa", my Christmas story for 2017. This year's story grew longer than I intended. It's a short novel at 52K words. I loved writing about Mack, a 6'10", 285 college wrestler. He a shy and guarded man. The protagonist of the story, Gabe, is a journalism student who falls for Mack after seeing him wrestle, never suspecting Mack might be gay or that a friend might set them up on a date.
