The Jerry McNeal Series

Pennsylvania State Trooper Jerry McNeal thought resigning from the State Police Post would free him and Gunter - his ghostly K-9 partner - to channel their intuition for the greater good. What he didn’t count on was just how many people would show up on his psychic radar at every turn. What is supposed to be a brief trip to Louisville, Kentucky to take Cat to his new home becomes an extended stay the moment Jerry sees a photo of Savannah’s wife, Alex, in her police uniform. Jerry, his PTSD ramped up, needs all of the paranormal resources at his disposal if he is going to be able to navigate a city full of seven hundred thousand tourists during Derby festivities and save the life of this police officer. With Gunter and Savannah ready to help, the race is on. But will the ex-State Trooper, psychic medium, and a ghostly dog be enough to save the day?

Call it a premonition. Call it intuition. Call it anything you like, but Pennsylvania State Trooper Jerry McNeal simply thinks of it as “that feeling.” That feeling may come on without warning, so intense he can’t breathe. Or, it may be a gentle nag that pulls at him until he decides to do something about it. He never quite knows what “it” is until he gets there, but when he arrives, he always knows he’s found what he is looking for. During one of the biggest snowstorms of the year, Trooper McNeal feels that familiar stir. An unease that grows with each flake that falls. Its intensity pulls at him until Jerry has no choice but to venture out onto the treacherous roads, following an invisible pull that grips at his very soul. Tonight, that feeling is going to take Trooper McNeal into a blizzard when the streets are supposed to be empty to save a life that would have otherwise been lost. Only tonight, Trooper McNeal is not going alone…

Jerry McNeal didn’t ask to be born with the gift of premonition. Nor did he ask to be haunted by the ghost of a K-9 police dog that doesn’t even appear to like him. And yet, in the second book in The Jerry McNeal Series, Jerry finds himself saddled with both. As Jerry struggles to coexist with his new ghostly companion, he must also follow the feeling that warns him of imminent danger in order to save Savannah - a psychic medium who unknowingly puts her own life at risk when she refuses to give her client bad news. Will Pennsylvania State Trooper McNeal be able to find the dog another companion to attach itself to? Or will Jerry finally accept things he has no power to change and make a decision that will alter his life forever?

Jerry McNeal has spent his life searching for answers. Why was he born with the gift of second sight? Why was he burdened with the ability to see ghosts? Why did he have to be different from everyone else? When Jerry reluctantly agrees to return to his childhood town of Newport, Tennessee for a family reunion he doesn’t want to attend, he finds himself surrounded by ghosts. Spirits, who have a message for him and are forcing the reluctant psychic medium to pay attention and follow their unsolicited advice. Will Jerry be able to get through the family reunion without pushing away the only family he has left? Can Jerry and his ghostly companion help the spirit of a childhood friend find peace in the afterlife? In this fourth book of The Jerry McNeal series, join Jerry as he navigates the truth of his existence and finally discovers his chosen path.

After the discovery of a second victim in Port Hope who closely resembles his childhood friend, Jerry and Gunter find themselves traveling to Niagara Falls, NY. Jerry feels certain he is dealing with more than a random coincidence. A feeling that is soon backed up by a visit from the spirit of another of the man’s victims. Jerry will need to use all his paranormal resources if he and his ghostly K-9 partner Gunter are going to convince authorities they have a serial killer on their hands. Things get even more complicated when the police want to know how Jerry just happens to know where all the bodies are buried, further threatening to destroy his former boss Seltzer’s career if Jerry doesn’t come clean about how he is able to solve another unsolvable case. Having no other choice, Jerry must tell them of his communication with the spirits of the deceased. Will the detectives believe him, or will Gunter soon be forced to visit Jerry in a ten-by-ten cell?

The fifth book in The Jerry McNeal series has Jerry and his ghostly K-9 companion heading to Michigan to visit Max and discover what – if any – secrets are hiding in Lighthouse County Park. Port Hope, the sleepy town that rests along the coast of Lake Huron, is the last place one would expect to find a dead body – much less a body that so closely resembles the one Jerry and Gunter uncovered in Tennessee. Is the redhead spirit that visits Max in her dreams simply a wayward ghost that haunts Pointe Aux Barques Lighthouse? Or, will Jerry, Max and Gunter, discover a truth too frightening to be labeled a mere coincidence?

In this ninth installment of the Jerry McNeal Series, Jerry and Gunter are once again on the move. Worried when Doc fails to answer his cell phone, Jerry and his ghostly K-9 companion waste no time heading to Maryland to check on the man who has always put himself before others. Meanwhile, Fred and Barney tell Jerry of another victim of the Hash Mark Killer. One lying in an irreversible coma only a short distance away. After Jerry realizes his gift will allow him to reach the woman who is hovering between the realms, he decides to bring in Max to see if, together, they can finally put a face to the Hash Mark Killer. Will Jerry be able to help the family of the latest victim let her go? Or will she be condemned to spend the rest of her ‘life’ in the equivalent of an above-ground grave? Find out in Uncanny Coincidence.

In this eighth installment of the Jerry McNeal Series, Jerry and Gunter find themselves diverted to the seaport town of Mystic, Connecticut. Jerry’s reputation of solving the unsolvable is opening unexpected doors as he is asked to help solve a case of a child who went missing without a trace over a year ago. Though authorities know there is little hope of finding the child alive, they are hopeful Jerry will be able to help nail the person they believe responsible for her disappearance. Will Jerry and Gunter be able to solve yet another unsolvable case? Or will yet another mischievous spirit become an obstacle for Jerry and his ghostly companion? Find out in Mystic Angel.

In this seventh installment of the Jerry McNeal Series, Jerry and Gunter travel to Salem, Massachusetts to track down yet another victim of the Hash Mark Killer. Finding a ghost in a city known for its haunted past isn’t hard – finding the precise spirit they are looking for proves to be slightly more difficult. Once discovered, they must begin the tricky task of convincing the woman she truly is dead. If things aren’t challenging enough, Jerry’s intuition has him questioning his own personal safety as he and Gunter are now on Mario Fabel’s stomping grounds. While Fabel has not threatened him, it doesn’t take special powers to know there is more to the man than meets the eye. Will Jerry and his ghostly K-9 partner be able to slip in and out of the area undetected, or will the man with a reach deeper than his pockets find them and make Jerry an offer he cannot refuse?

In this eleventh installment of the Jerry McNeal Series, Jerry and Gunter head to The Villages in Florida to visit Jerry’s parents in hopes of getting some much-needed rest. What Jerry expects to be a quiet visit to do some soul searching turns out to be anything but relaxing when Jerry discovers his dad, Wayne, has been boasting all over town about his psychic son and Jerry’s ghostly K-9 companion. Jerry quickly discovers The Villages' geriatric community to be a lively cast of eccentric characters, both living and dead, all of which look upon him as their portal to contact loved ones on the other side. Will Jerry be able to find a peaceful solution to keep his father on speaking terms with his neighbors while trying to navigate his own inner turmoil? Will Gunter be able to resist showing himself to a town full of tenacious seniors determined to get a glimpse of the ghostly K-9?

In this tenth installment of the Jerry McNeal Series, Jerry and Gunter head to the Tidewater area of Virginia, which is the suspected home of the elusive Hash Mark Killer. Once in Hampton Roads, the only thing more prevalent than sailors in this military town are white cargo vans such as the one the killer is linked to. Jerry soon finds his psychic radar jammed time and time again as each van seems to harbor something keeping him from homing on the one they are looking for. It soon becomes apparent that if they are going to have any luck landing the killer, Jerry is going to have to agree to Fred’s plan of casting a wide net and using the most sought-after bait to entice the Hash Mark Killer into the open. Bait like Susie Richardson, the only living person who can positively identify the man. It’s all hands on deck as Max and Savannah come on board to help Jerry and Gunter and to help keep Susie safe. Will the gang be able to use their combined gifts to lure in the Hash Mark Killer? Or will he prove too slippery to be caught?
