The Sunbeam Room

United by blood, but divided by life experience, geography and politics, Sarah and Digger couldn’t be more different.
​
A failed marriage, a crippling injury, and losing his only family connection leave Digger, a sixty-one-year-old Alberta oil sands worker, alone and directionless until his mother’s shocking confession and dying wish upends his life.
​
Sarah is a cautious number-crunching actuary in Ottawa. But her ordered world collapses when her husband Pieter is diagnosed with early-onset dementia just as the world shuts down.
​
In The Sunbeam Room, Digger embarks on a TransCanada quest to honour his mother’s dying request: hand deliver a letter to Sarah, the daughter she gave up at birth.

Birds of a Feather
Launch Date: Fall 2025
Librarian Samuel Rigondeaux joins five aspiring writers each Thursday night at the Lethbridge Public Library to fulfill his dream of writing a novel. What could be the harm? A bruised ego?
But when a sadistic serial killer targets the wannabe novelists, Samuel is driven to channel his inner Sherlock. As the lead police detective locks in on the wrong suspect, the librarian teams up with Flagstaff, a former RCMP detective now homeless, to solve the murders.
The killer continues to elude the Lethbridge Police, leaving behind a crow feather at each writer’s murder.
Can the librarian’s mad research skills and the disgraced detective’s street-wise savvy uncover the true murderer? As this improbable alliance draws closer to the truth, the Crow Killer looks to add Samuel to the rising body count.
Birds of a Feather is a gripping murder mystery where appearances and assumptions turn deadly.
