Synopsis/Details

When rookie police officer Jake Reynolds is assigned overnight duty at a nearly empty precinct, it should be a quiet shift. Instead, he’s pulled into the basement evidence room—where something is wrong.

Locker 13 isn’t just storage.

It’s active.

When evidence begins moving on its own and long-closed case files mysteriously reopen, Jake and veteran Sergeant Hollis discover they are trapped inside a system that doesn’t just preserve the past—it reconstructs it. Crime scenes replay. Victims reappear. And every piece of evidence points toward one terrifying truth:

The cases were never finished.

As the station seals itself off from the outside world, the system begins processing unresolved crimes in real time—turning evidence into judgment, and judgment into outcome. When a detainee vanishes mid-investigation and reemerges as both victim and perpetrator, Jake realizes the rules are changing—and they are next.

For Hollis, the system dredges up a buried mistake he’s spent years trying to forget. But in Locker 13, nothing stays buried. Forced to confront the truth, Hollis makes a choice that finally closes his case—but at a cost.

Now alone, Jake must face the system himself.

But this isn’t about survival.

It’s about truth.

Because in Locker 13, every case gets resolved…
whether you’re ready or not.

My newest novel and screenplay, ALL IS NOT CALM, is a Christmas action thriller with a simple commercial hook: “Die Hard on a luxury cruise ship.” On Christmas Eve, a former Coast Guard commander must save his estranged wife—the ship’s captain—and hundreds of passengers when a vengeful hijacker turns the vessel into a weapon aimed at a fuel terminal.
