Blake Sanders is a man with a past, but little future. He was a college basketball player until his hip and knee gave out. He was a communications executive who dealt with politicians and sports stars until his career was derailed.

Now he makes a precarious living washing dishes and delivering newspapers.

Sanders doesn't seek out crime and adventure, but rather falls in the path of it. He lives in Seattle and his stories have a strong sense of the place and its history.

Sherer makes Blake Sanders a broken, accidental hero. He solves crime out of necessity rather than a driving sense of justice. He struggles with his demons and must succeed despite them. Sanders is less a hard-boiled detecter than the tragic hero of his own tattered life.

 Night Blind

The brutal murder of a feisty little old lady, one of Blake Sanders' few friends, leaves him as the prime suspect. To clear himself, Sanders must battle his demons and unknown forces including a French intelligence agent.

What is the link between the Catholic Church, a rogue spy, a mysterious U.S. Navy command signal and the new underground rail project?

 Night Tide

Sanders is back on his familiar pattern of dishwashing and delivering papers, but it seems trouble is destined to find him. A family barbecue with friend and cop Charlie ends in a gun battle with black-clad intruders and the flight of Charlie's parents.

A childhood friend of Sanders is freed from prison after 20 years and the feds, who have lost track of him, think Sanders knows where he is. Once again, Sanders must seek the answers to old secrets in order to get clear of his problems.
