The New Sensitives
Maddy, Izzy, Bob, Maiko, and others cross paths with a new batch of Sensitives, in Ripped Away (Uncommon Senses #2), available on Kindle and Paperback April 7.
The Chameleon
Amy Chen always wanted to be invisible. An introvert to the extreme, she has spent the majority of her young troubled life as a hermit, that is until office life forced her to interact with others. A chance encounter with her boss opens her eyes to a secret her parents hid from her throughout her entire childhood.
The Impervious
The Magnificent Steven has soured on life. Booze and a series of stupid mistakes derailed his once promising career as an illusionist. Struggling to make it to the big time, he suffers a major mishap during one of his performances, gaining a kind of fame he never thought that he would achieve, and a notoriety that he doesn’t want.
The Athlete
Anya Tymoshenko had her sights set on a career in pro hockey. She dazzled at every level and was on pace to win yet another college championship when a freak injury and concussion ended her career before it could begin. After many dark days, an unlikely friendship helped her power through, but when that lifeline goes missing, Anya finds herself among new friends who aid in the search.
The Frog
Igor Volkov formed a healthy mistrust of authority at a young age. The budding hacker always assumed the government had his parents murdered, but when death followed him to the orphanage and beyond, Igor wondered whether anyone close to him would ever be safe. Chance encounters with people like him alter the course of his life for good.
Ripped Away Preview
I’m very excited to reveal the cover and synopsis for my second novel, Ripped Away (Uncommon Senses #2), the sequel to The Ripper of Blossom Valley. I hope you like it!
When ordinary people experience unsettling changes, they discover that super powers aren’t all they’re cracked up to be. Enhanced senses come with a downside that make them desperate, or worse, drive them mad.
After an encounter with a serial killer and the untimely death of one of their own, Sensitives led by psychotherapist Dr. Maddy Gibson pick up the pieces of their lives, while trying to recruit more to their cause. Things become more urgent when some of her patients begin to go missing.
Meanwhile, SJPD Sgt. Troy Weathers and his new partner attempt to uncover the truth about the Ripper Murders, while also investigating a kidnapping gone wrong.

Sensitive Subjects
The characters of The Ripper of Blossom Valley
A quiet, affluent sprawling neighborhood in southern San Jose, Blossom Valley has come under siege. Someone–perhaps several someones–have been targeting unsuspecting women in their homes, leaving three dead. And dismembered.
The Veteran Detective
Lt. Frank Foley is a living legend in the SJPD’s Homicide unit. His knack for reading people and solving murders quickly have made him a reputation that is only blemished by mistakes in his past. Along with his apprentice, Sgt. Troy Weathers, Foley struggles to crack the case of the serial killer known as The Ripper.
The Snoop
Isabel Gutierrez had a job that she loved at Lick Observatory on top of Mount Hamilton. Then, she started hearing voices. Unable to block them out, they’ve become part of her, costing Izzy her job, her life, and her sanity. But they also lead her to opportunity, a chance to stop a man from taking advantage of others.
The Vamp
Dr. Maiko Miyata never expected her research to be hindered by her own terminal illness. She was even more surprised when she discovered a way to keep her cancer at bay and continue her work. But at what cost?
The Radar
Psychotherapist Dr. Madison Gibson never believed in super powers, until she realized that some of her patients’ difficulties were a result of perceiving the world differently from everyone else. That eureka moment came courtesy of her own awakening.
The Professional
Tim Yamamoto’s career in IT has taken a turn for the worse, thanks to his uncontrollable nervous tics and seizures. An alarming discovery in a bar changes not only his career path, but his life as well.
The Seer
Priya Patel sees the world differently. The already struggling artist was only hindered by her altered eyesight, desperation leading her to make bad decisions just to make ends meet.
The Drifter
Will Nelson’s been in and out of trouble all his life. After a near-fatal accident leaves him in a coma, he awakes to a world he feels even less a part of, drawn to strange scents that lead to a new mission in life.
The Vault
Bob North had a simple life, surrounded by friends and a social life centered around his love of pop culture. When a chance encounter at Trivia Night causes his photographic memory to go haywire, Bob’s Vault levels up.
