Valorie Dawes Thrillers

In Search of Valor

The action-packed prequel to A Woman of Valor

Valorie Dawes fights an international kidnapping syndicate on behalf of a new college friend--and harbors serious doubts about her future as a police officer.

During her first month at college, the mysterious disappearance of a close friend's child drags Val into the role of crimefighter much earlier than planned.

Anxious to prove herself worthy as both a cop and a friend, Val puts her own life on the line--and discovers that the kidnappers will stop at nothing to get rid of obstacles like her.


A Woman of Valor

A rookie policewoman, who had been molested as a young girl, pursues a serial child molester–and struggles to control the anger his misdeeds awake in her.

Can Valorie overcome the trauma she suffered as a child and stop this dangerous criminal from hurting others like her—or will her bottled-up anger lead her to take reckless risks that put the people she loves in greater danger?


A Better Part of Valor

While jogging off duty along the riverfront, Val discovers the dead body of a teenage girl—and ignites a manhunt for a serial killer.

The Shoeless Schoolgirl Slayer has remained a step ahead of the Clayton, CT police for months. All of his victims drowned. All were found barefoot. And all bear the same strange, fresh tattoo.

Then rookie cop Val Dawes notices patterns that eluded the department’s more traditional senior detectives. Following her intuition, she discovers clues that convince her she’s closing in.

But is she? Or is the clever and elusive Slayer laying a trap to make Val the next victim?


Mother of Valor

Rookie Cop Valorie Dawes must stop an imminent violent attack by a ruthless, cunning extremist group.

Standing in her way is the sudden return of a person she barely knows: her mother.

As part of a prostitution sting operation, rookie cop Val Dawes uncovers a national sex trafficking ring operating out of Clayton, one with ties to a violent shadowy right-wing splinter group. Her investigation reveals the group is planning a violent attack in a matter of days.

Just when the investigation heats up, her estranged mother, who left without a trace a decade before, suddenly reappears on the scene, with a nine-year-old brother Val never knew she had.

As the group’s violent plans near, Val tries to safeguard her family, leading to shocking discoveries about why her mother returned—and why she left in the first place.

Can Val keep her community safe without destroying her family?
