The First in a Series of its own to follow!
My book, Quest for Redemption, is available now!
It’s the beginning of a brand new series, not quite like the Shay O’Hanlon Caper Series…
A little darker, takes a deeper dive into the psyche of my poor protagonist, Flynn.
Of course there’s adventure, a little derring-do, and the struggle of a good person on a bad path.
Here’s the back cover blurb:
Placed on a medical leave of absence from her job as a special agent in the National Protection
and Investigation Unit, Mikala Flynn is a woman on the edge―guilt-ridden, depressed,
battling war wounds and personal demons. The world and the relationships as she
knew them no longer exist. Now, the streets of New York, the bottle,
and anonymous sex have become her solace.
In the midst of a fire escape bender, Flynn overhears her crazy-like-a-fox grandmother
and her art-world cronies planning a daring theft of a valuable historical document.
Eventually Flynn crashes the party and agrees to take on the heist herself.
Along the way, Flynn runs into, both literally and figuratively, her now wheelchair-bound best friend,
an alluring, mysterious thief who throws multiple wrenches into the works,
and the ex-love of her life.
Can Flynn pull off the job without falling victim to vodka and lost love…
and somehow begin to find herself again along the way?
This book was a three-year endeavor that tested my capability and my desire to keep writing.
In the end I’m very proud of this novel!

And at least One Reader has spoken…
5 stars Darker than the Shay O’Hanlon series. Worth the read!

Jessie Chandler handed us a great read! Loved how she introduced us to Flynn in three parts. The early years and how Flynn got to where she is today paved the way nicely. Action-packed. Flynn draws the reader in…all the characters do, actually. Fully fleshed out characters that meld and carry the reader on the waves of action and bring us down to grab a breath before carrying us back up again. Love the Art Squad and Tubs! Dante is an enigma that we’ll hopefully see again in future installments of the series. And will Kate and Flynn get back together? Superb writing…funny…dark…powerful…all the things. Jessie Chandler poured her all into this book…Loved it!
