I am pleased to say that the website BookLife has reviewed my most recent novel, The Silly Dreams of Shallow Sleep, the continuing story of porn star turned private investigator Angel Bimini, who was first introduced to the world in my 2019 novel Zip Monkey. The novel follows Angel as she looks into the death of a famous cancer researcher. The official cause of death was suicide, but his ex-partner, a famous immunologist, insists that they had run afoul of Chinese spies looking into a disease cure they had found.

The book life reviewer says, “Rasmussen’s writing is rich and evocative, blending sharp wit with poignant observations about human nature, and the characters are deeply flawed yet compelling, each grappling with their own demons and desires.”

I will accept that compliment!

For now, my novels are available only as e-books on Amazon’s Kindle, though I hope to expand to other outlets soon. Getting print versions of my novels out has been a little more complicated, but one day soon I hope to have something on paper that my readers (wherever they are) can hold in their hands.

If you’ve read this book (or any of my other books) feel free to drop a comment!

And your stomach’s tight as the shadows are all splashed out

By a humorless sun.

“Can’t hide from me.”

It was kind of like that.
