“Stories have the power to entertain.
Stories have the power to educate.
The greatest stories have the power to make us think.
The Nikki Barnes Universe is dedicated to telling authentic stories about people, institutions, justice and the choices that define us.
Every novel.
Every screenplay.
Every character.
Every investigation.
I will strive to leave the reader with not only a mystery solved, but a deeper understanding of the human condition.
