Justic never sleeps.

Alexander L’Hiboux is a man who lives on the streets, who never sleeps, who never stops hunting his lawless prey… he is The Owl.

The most daring and original hero in crime fiction… in a debut novel that’s a relentless, pure-adrenaline rush.

It’s the mid-1980s. Crime in Los Angeles is running rampant. When the law can’t help you, there is one man who can: Alexander L’Hiboux, whose ability to sleep was destroyed in the ghastly tragedy that cost him his family. Now he’s justice-for-hire, prowling the streets and solving crimes with deadly finality. A desperate, grief-stricken shipping magnate hires The Owl to find the scum who brutalized his daughter…a quest that uncovers a shocking conspiracy that will rock the city.

“Mike Hammer is a wimp compared to The Owl,” – Bill Crider, author of Outrage at Blanco and the bestselling Sheriff Dan Rhoades mysteries.

THE OWL

Haunted. Lethal. Unstoppable. Justice incarnate.

The most daring and original hero in crime fiction in a scorching, action-packed adventure.

SCARLET SERENADE

It’s the mean-streets of L.A. in the mid-1980s. When The Owl rescues a young punk-rock starlet from being kidnapped, he considered it just a minor good deed with a few dead bodies left scattered around. But he soon discovers that she’s the target of a gangland conspiracy that has half of the city’s underworld after her. Now the only thing between her and certain death is The Owl.

“Exhilarating! A pure action high unlike anything I’ve ever read before. The Owl is a cross between Batman and The Terminator…but he’s even more deadly and relentless,” –  Lee Goldberg, New York Times bestselling author of The Chase.

“It starts off over the top and builds from there. There’s action aplenty. The Owl absorbs more punishment than any two or three or four people in other novels,” – Bill Crider, author of Outrage at Blanco.
