There are certain Lines You Do Not Cross
Someone is killing county prosecutors, state attorneys, county probation officers, and the criminals they allow to go free. An old serial killer is up to his old tricks using Native American warrior justice, while leaving authorities baffled.
Of the two last potential suspects from the old murder cases, one man is sitting in Arizona State Prison. The other is a former Navy SEAL, a man frustrated with the American justice system that is corrupt and broken, and someone who has apparently dropped off the face of the earth. Detective Mike Furlough is a seasoned Arizona homicide detective who has spent 21 years with the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Department.
The same Native American style torture killing is happening again. After four new murders, Detective Furlough is reaching for straws. This killer is selective about who the next victim will be.
Furlough delves into the gruesome realm of Native American vengeance and warrior honor. His investigation also uncovers corruption in the probation department and his own department’s office politics that go deeper than he ever imagined. His only lead takes him across the Pacific. What will he find?
Tana-Waka: Book One of the Tana-Waka Series
The Foothills Tribe has festered with evil in its midst for generations. War with the Timber people has taken a heavy toll. In a mountainside temple, the tribe chants for days. In desperation, they call upon the legend of their people to save them from extinction.
A dying man from a dying planet returns to the roots of his Native American ancestors. Tana-Waka is called by the Foothills Tribe over space and vast distances to a land where two powerful tribes must again become one people, or their wars will cause their own extinction.
In the first book of the Tana-Waka Series, Tana-Waka is summoned from his withering planet Earth to another world to end an ongoing war and unify enemies who were long ago one people.
Tana-Waka awakens in a world with two moons. He is only a man, but his link to the forest spirits is an old one. His power is in his ability to see the souls of people, and his strongest weapon is his knowledge from the fading memories of his former world, as well as his ability to dream.
Legend says that he alone possesses blue eyes, power over animals, a mastery of warrior tactics, and an unmatched ability as a diplomat. Aided by the healer Mahanee and Tewani, the chief’s beautiful daughter, they try to forge a new path for the people before it is too late.
Maka: Book Two of the Tana-Waka Series
In the first book of the Tana-Waka Series, Tana-Waka is summoned from his dying planet Earth to another world, so he can end an ongoing war and unify Native American enemies who were once one people. This is the second book of this otherworldly series.
The Anaka Dreamer White Dove has prophesied the Inu attack of the peaceful Maka People. As the Maka villages are decimated by thousands of barbaric Inu warriors, the pregnant dreamer heads to the climactic battle between her and the Inu’s evil shaman, the likes of which unleash the fearsome power of nature.
The Maka are neither friend nor enemy of the Anaka. To enter Maka lands with Anaka warriors would not be taken kindly, but it is their dreamer who insists they can and must help, or the entire Maka people will die.
Tana-Waka and War Chief Haka head south to aid Deputy War Chief Five Killer, as they consider the punishment for three of their senior Anaka warriors for breaking formation in battle.
A new and heinous evil is discovered in the southern lands that border the Anaka. In both Crane and Maka villages, women and children are disappearing in the night and none have returned! These crimes may be heinous enough to unleash the wrath of the forest spirits.
