Lawyers Gone Bad
Summary
"Scarsella spices [his tale] with saucy language when needed and street lingo where appropriate. He keeps the suspense at high level until the answers unfold." - The Buffalo News (May 31, 2015) Lawyers Gone Bad is the story of beleaguered attorney and disciplinary counsel, Dean Alessi, and his trusty investigator, Stu Foley, in their fight against lawyers who have gone bad; that is, lawyers who commit ethical and criminal wrongs. They are investigating the case of the local district attorney who may have committed the ultimate ethical crime of murder. Vincent Scarsella draws on his over 18 years of real-life experience as head of the Eighth Judicial District Grievance Committee in Buffalo, New York, to craft a gripping, suspenseful tale about lawyers who have gone bad. More than a crime story, this tale concerns friendship, loss, unrequited love, and ultimately, justice. It seeks to answer the question: Does what goes around, come around? Lawyers Gone Bad follows on the success of Vincent Scarsella’s debut crime novel, The Anonymous Man. "The Anonymous Man gets decent marks for creativity and intricacy...it's a fast read that runs through familiar local settings to a satisfying conclusion. Scarsella has the makings of a good storyteller...he and [Jack] Fox could go places." - The Buffalo News "I am really enjoying reading this book so far." - Krystal H. (March 7, 2016) "Lawyers Gone Bad is so good!" - Gary L. Hosking (January 1, 2015) "Fantastic plot!" - Harry J Gawronski (April 8, 2015) Thank you for your interest.

The Black River Chronicles, Level One
Summary
You know these characters: The ranger, the fighter, the wizard, the rogue. But haven't you ever wondered how they learned to be those things? Three months into his studies at the Black River Academy of Swordcraft and Spellcraft, Durren Flintrand is shocked by the news that from now on he'll be assigned to a party and that his only hope of progressing beyond the lowly rank of level one is to succeed with his new companions. However, Durren has a secret that may make that impossible, and his three partners have problems of their own. Wizard Areinelimus is terrified of her own magic. Rogue Tia has no patience at all with others. And warrior Hule is just an idiot. In fact, when a disembodied, floating eyeball is your most competent party member, you know you have serious problems. To stand a chance of succeeding, they need to work together, and that means learning to tolerate each other while surviving a world of angry rat people, murderous sorcerers, and homicidal unicorns. But even if they can somehow find a way to get along, dark and ancient forces are stirring, ones no level-one students should ever have to confront.... The Black River Chronicles is a new fantasy series from David Tallerman and Michael Wills. Set in an academy for young adventurers in training, the Black River Academy, our new dungeon crawlers set out to learn the ropes. Follow them in their adventures and misadventures and see if they save the day - or flunk out of school before earning their next level.

The Thing in the Woods
Summary
Seventeen-year-old James Daly's father bought a house in small-town Edington, Georgia to go with a promotion at his Atlanta law firm, only to lose his job when the housing bubble popped and the economy tanked. Now James has to work at the Edington Best Buy to help pay the mortgage they're underwater on. He can't wait until he turns 18 and can leave Edington behind forever.
But when a local boy challenges him to an ATV race near a tree farm most people avoid, things get much worse. James' rival is dismembered alive by a tentacled horror emerging from a nearby pond. The monstrosity has been worshiped by a murderous coven since before the Civil War, and its devotees don't take kindly to their secrets being threatened.
Now with the aid of Amber Webb, a local girl he doesn't like liking, and a renegade cult member, James must fight to avoid ending up bound to a picnic table and offered up to a monster. He must do battle with both the local cultists and their predatory master, The Thing in the Woods.

The Black River Chronicles: The Ursvaal Exchange
Summary
Student ranger Durren Flintrand had thought he was settling in at the Black River Academy for swordcraft and spellcraft. But when rebellious rogue Tia Locke uncovers a horrifying secret in the dungeons beneath the school, Durren quickly realizes that the challenges he's faced so far were scant preparation for what lies ahead. Along with magic-averse wizard Arein and blunt but good-hearted fighter Hule, he and Tia find themselves on Black River's first student-exchange program: They're being sent to the Shadow Mountain Academy in the dank and dismal land of Ursvaal, and they're going whether they like it or not.
At Shadow Mountain, things are done differently. No longer is Durren a ranger but a bard, despite his lacking the slightest notion of what being a bard involves. And not only that but Tia is acting even more strangely than usual, Hule is taking being a paladin awfully seriously, and Arein has a new party member with ideas very different from her own to contend with, in the shape of irascible cleric Cailliper Ancrux - who wants nothing less than to be involved with Shadow Mountain's unpopular newcomers.
The four Black River students will have to relearn everything they thought they knew; but the threats surrounding them aren't about to wait. Can they hope to survive an uprising of the dead, the winged horror that haunts this desolate land, and an ancient plot risen from the blackest depths of Ursvaal's history? And even if the somehow should, can Durren possibly overcome his tone deafness and learn to play the lute?
