Investigate a murderous ghost, do battle with a shapeshifting demon, get ready for a date … it's all in a day's work for Sacramento's only paranormal detective.The ghost of a man's wife come to avenge her untimely death, a woman caught on camera stealing drugs from work when she wasn't even in town, and a family with a secret no one can ever know.When August Watson takes on all three cases at the same time, it's not because he is short of work, but due to the worrying connection between them – they all point to impossible doubles.Is there a shapeshifting doppelganger at work? It seems like the only explanation for the craziness ensuing, but as he gets closer to the truth, the long-hidden lies he disturbs come with a price.His own life.In a race to stop more deaths, August Watson will risk it all.If only work was his biggest worry. Steve has been writing for years without producing anything that he believed was worth reading. Is he overly critical of his work? Probably, but having taken five years to finish the first book he took only five months for the second and is now working on three more stories simultaneously. He describes his current experience as that of a storyteller with ideas falling uncontrollably out of his ears. He keeps a notepad on his person at all times in case another idea comes to him and can be found scribbling pretty much any time he comes to a stop.He lives not far from where his books are based, but although he was born and raised in Kent he spent most of this adult life as a soldier deployed to various points of the globe. Now retired from the military he has the world's most perfect son and a beautiful wife who is completely convinced his description of the single women in his book is the early stages of a mid-life crisis. It's not love, honest.Influenced by Jim Butcher, Stephen King, Kim Harrison, Derek Landy, Lee Child and Janet Evanovich to name a few, his work will always be a mix of action and thriller mixed with situational comedy. The central character's parents are in no way based on his own. Definitely, definitely not.
