Chase Dagger Mysteries

Chase Dagger is a private detective with seemingly no past, an on-again off-again fiancee, a scarlet macaw with photographic memory and an attitude, and Sara as his beautiful and mysterious young assistant. Chase also seems to only inherit the most unusual of cases.

A series of gruesome murders leads an Indianapolis cop and a university professor to the doorstep of Cedar Point P.I., Chase Dagger. They have a theory behind the killings.

Someone has found a way to commit the perfect crime--repeatedly. None of the witnesses, or surveillance cameras recording the crimes reveal the assailant.

Dagger comes face-to-face with his past in the form of an intruder who first wants to hire him, then tries to kill him. What triggered this response?

5th Book in the Chase Dagger Series -- "Lightning is the least of your worries." -- The Indiana Paranormal Investigators are spending a night in a gothic mansion on the outskirts of Cedar Point, Indiana. Four people are participating, only three remain in the morning. There have been other disappearances and homicides in the past connected with the mansion. And the one common denominator has been the weather. Chase Dagger and his entourage plan to spend a night in the mansion to seek answers. But they get more than they bargain for as another storm builds on the horizon. The Chase Dagger series blends mystery with fantasy, horror, and sometimes sci-fi. Critics call it "MacGuyver meets Dark Angel." (Lee Driver is the pseudonym for author S.D. Tooley)

In FULL MOON-BLOODY MOON (Book 2) Chase Dagger and his cohorts confronted the curse of the Addison family. Paul Addison had been an unassuming character, quiet and subdued, but with one lethal flaw-he had been born on a Friday the 13th during a full moon. All of the men in the Addison family born during an identical occurrence inherited the same curse, transforming them into bloodthirsty predators. But Paul Addison had a fiery end to his life. If that's the case, then who has been on a killing spree for the past seven months? Killings which become increasingly more brutal around a full moon? Injuries so merciless that it couldn't possibly have been made by anything human? How much more can the killings escalate as it approaches a full moon AND a Friday the 13th? As though Dagger didn't have enough to worry about with his former employer on his trail, he now has to protect the woman he loves because every victim of the current serial killer is a woman. And each is named Sara.
