Legacy of the Highborn 

There is no magic in Alluvion.

Alluvion, a land ruled by the High King Viran, has not felt the presence of magic in centuries. Certainly for the starved and bedraggled prisoner Destin, the idea that magic might somehow be able to deliver him from the horrors of slavery is a fantasy indeed.

He carries with him a terrible and deadly secret, for he possesses a spark of those who were once hailed as the sole protectors of Alluvion, the Highborn: people capable of wielding powerful magic.

Though the Highborn kept the peace for hundreds of years, their reign came to an abrupt end and they vanished, never to be seen again. Destin may be the key that will unlock the door to this mystery, but struggles to cultivate his powers; he knows if he is discovered the penalty will surely be a painful death.

Despite all this, Destin knows the secret that will utterly shatter the fabric of their world:

There is magic in Alluvion.

Undomesticated: She Had No Remorse

Undomesticated: 

She Had No Remorse

A small Nebraska town is terrorized by a serial killer who targets young “good” girls. The prime suspect disappears and may have himself become someone else’s victim. 

Warren Steelgrave has just written a best-selling novel and gained further nationwide notoriety when he narrowly escaped being murdered at his daughter’s wedding. The local Nebraska town newspaper hires Warren as an investigative reporter because of his unique insights and his uncanny instinct for finding the truth. More papers will be sold and more eyes will be focused on the town’s plight.

In this third novel in the Steelgrave series, author and photographer Gary Smith takes us another thought provoking journey with surprising twists and suspense filled alleyways. Smith’s alter ego, Warren Steelgrave, explores the psyche of an “undomesticated” killer who acts without remorse. Warren soon realizes that he shares many traits with the killer. It is a fine line that makes his own “willingness” to do what is necessary actually be socially acceptable. 

Warren’s romantic kindred spirit, Cindy O’Brien, has been living her life separate; writing songs and performing them across the country. She suddenly joins Warren in Nebraska to escape a deadly stalker. The readers of Smith’s first two books know that Warren will never leave that “stone unturned”.

The varied character plots intertwine as the story unfolds. The reader is challenged to confront their own human nature and how they might react given a challenge outside their moral comfort zone. This latest adventure has an ending that won’t be decided by a jury.
