Heath Bahr #1

Heath Bahr is ready to enjoy the peace and quiet of his now empty nest. The days of rushing his girls from school to practice to gatherings to home are in the rearview mirror. He and his wife are financially and emotionally secure. His girls are setup for success. All Heath has to do is sit back and enjoy the fruits of his life's labor.

Or so he thought.

Sometimes life throws you a curveball. Other times, it just shoves you off a cliff.

Heath Bahr #1 is the first novella in a series about life, love, and the train wrecks that happen along the way. 

The plan was to get a quiet dinner, chill out, and escape the heat for an hour or so. The drunk guy was not part of the plan. But the guy pushed. Kelly pushed back. Now Kelly’s life is about to get complicated.

A cop, a killer, and a businessman are suddenly very interested in Kelly Jenks. They want something from him, and Kelly is about to find out that these folks get what they want.

Let The Interview begin . . .

 After The Interview, Kelly Jenks has some things to learn.

Kelly knows the three dead girls are a problem. Just not his problem. When a fourth woman turns up dead, Kelly is forced to acknowledge that someone is trying to get his attention. A confrontation with an enigmatic stranger raises the stakes as Kelly is once again drawn into a dangerous game of deceit and violence.

As Kelly struggles to unravel the twisted threads of truth and lies, he will begin to understand that he has been training for this job his entire life. 

The deceased are judge and jury. They have an executioner.

Kelly knows the dead boy is going to show him something awful. Jonathan is seven. He never wears shoes and his feet are always clean. He cruises between this world and the next in an old muscle car. Jonathan has a message for Kelly: There is a faceless man preying on the city’s homeless.

Jackie Carmichael hires Kelly to find an employee who has vanished. The case appears simple at first, but Kelly discovers that the missing girl is not who she seems. As Kelly attempts to the solve the mystery of the missing girl and the faceless man, Jonathan brings him another message: Jackie Carmichael is hiding something.

With the beaches, mansions, and dive bars of Orange County, CA as the backdrop, Caffeine & Nicotine is a dark and brutal look at what happens when the dead pass sentence.

 Sometimes getting lost is the only way to find yourself.
