Well, it’s been a number of years since the original edition of A Shadow in the Flames was published. Two and a half months ago I posted the revised Kindle edition as my first experiment into the world of eBooks. As you likely know if you’ve been here before, that experiment led me to publish the ASITF sequel as an eBook as well.
Today’s the big day. I’m pleased to announce that A Memory in the Black, the sequel to A Shadow in the Flames, has been released!

The thing I love most about A Memory in the Black is how much more deeply I was able to explore the characters after establishing them in the first book. As is the case with much of life, events from A Shadow in the Flames continue to affect them, and will lead some of them to go further than they might have thought possible. You’ll also see into the minds of Diomedes and Caitlin for the first time. (Ever wondered how Diomedes got the way he was?) And, of course, Gideon has been seen alive…
I must warn you, however: not everyone is back. Brian does not appear in this book. (I’m sure that’s a great disappointment to the 2% of readers who didn’t think he was a putz.) There wasn’t any purpose for him in the story, and, frankly, I’m in the implied 98% myself. There are, of course, new characters…
So why not give it a try? You can even read the first 10% on Amazon by clicking the “look inside!” on the book’s cover image.
The book is dedicated to everyone who wanted to know what happened next, and I’m sorry for making you all wait so long. I do hope you’ll find it worth the wait.
Save humanity from itself. It is the goal of the worldwide conspiracy known as the Agents of Aeneas. For months they have struggled to unlock the secrets of an alien spacecraft buried on the Moon. Now word of that craft has leaked, and multiple groups plot to seize it for themselves.
One man has plumbed its depths and returned alive. While Agent Michael Flynn protects him from those who believe that he knows too much, together they must find a demon from Michael’s past: the freelancer Diomedes. Michael’s violent ex-mentor, Diomedes murdered a man at the heart of the spacecraft’s discovery. They must learn why.
Meanwhile the vigilante Gideon, slain by Diomedes six months ago, has been seen alive in the city of Northgate. His baffling return will draw two women into dangers far beyond those that lurk in the city.
Memories that haunt them all will entangle their fates as one in the blackness.
