slaughter in the sand
whose bloody shoes will pop up next?

six teenage friends take one last vacation together before they each head off to their trade school of choice. the friends include a beauty queen, a football star, a dyslexic obsessed with elderly women, a creepy and brooding poet who makes strangers on the bus incredibly uncomfortable, a mean-spirited trickster who once had reconstructive surgery to correct the 'horsiness' of her face, and a girl who answers to two names and also makes strangers on the bus uncomfortable- due not to her creepiness but her frightening blood alcohol content. some of these friends will end up dead, their youthful bodies hacked into a million, trillion pieces. other friends will tactfully ignore the slayings and instead focus on making love connections.

who will go home alive and full of other people's body fluids? who will go home in three separate garbage bags? and who will go home with a sprained ankle and a bag of taffy? find out in slaughter in the sand, a mystery/erotic thriller/how-to-manual due in bookstores spring, 2005.
