“Nothing can stay the same forever. We get in trouble in life when we think it can and will. Everything changes, or as King Solomon said in the Bible and The Byrds sang in the 60’s, to everything there is a season and a time for every purpose under heaven. It’s not a particularly easy lesson to learn, or a fun one for that matter. I learned it the summer between high school and college, and my life would never be the same.”
Will's life is changing so quickly he can’t keep up. He's moving out of his parents' home for the first time, changing careers, making new friends, and falling in love with the person he least expected. In the process, he’s also learning a lot about himself. As if he doesn't have enough going on, his life-long best friend dies in what appears to be a drunken accident. But when Will receives a note hinting that it may not have been an accident after all, he finds that he can't rest until he knows the truth. With the help of Killian Kendall and his friends, Will begins an amateur investigation that will result in even more death. Will thought the biggest changes were behind him, but they had only just begun.
Reap the Whirlwind blends a coming-of-age story and gripping mystery with a powerful love story. It is the winner of two Gay Writers Guild awards.

He wraps a believable murder mystery around compassionate portrayals of young men on the brink of adulthood, who are searching for ways to cope with the life changes going on in and around them.” Nann Dunne for JustAboutWrite.com
“This roller coaster ride of a book… feels accurate and alive. Above all, the message is clear that love and acceptance of self and others is critical... Highly recommended…” Lori L. Lake for Midwest Book Review
