My publishing career has been non-fiction focused. I am excited to announce that I have my first novel coming out, To the End of Reckoning. It will be released in August 2026. It is a high-concept speculative thriller that asks what happens when history stops being debatable.

 

What if a film existed of every major historical event?

 

Would footage of Caesar’s assassination or Columbus landing in the Americas be accepted as real? And if such films were genuine, who could have created them—and what would their existence mean for the future of humanity?

 

When a cache of impossible film reels is discovered in an abandoned barn in upstate New York, film historian Harry Kincaid is pulled into a government investigation unlike any other. Alongside a team of experts in film, history, and science, he must determine whether these astonishing recordings are CGI, AI fabrications, elaborate reenactments—or the unthinkable: authentic glimpses into the past.

 

From the signing of the Declaration of Independence to ancient battles, each reel exposes truths too extraordinary to dismiss. But as the team digs deeper, they uncover a warning embedded within the films—one that could alter the course of human civilization.

 

As governments close in and powerful interests race to control the narrative, Harry faces the ultimate question: if everyone believes something to be true, do the facts still matter?

 

To the End of Reckoning is a gripping speculative thriller that explores the boundaries of faith, science, and truth itself—hurtling from revelation to revelation until its breathtaking conclusion, when humanity must confront the path it has chosen in a crowded, cynical, and uncontrollable world.


Please check it out. It is available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Bookshop.org, or from any independent bookstore.
