Showing no signs of slowing down, he is currently juggling not one but three new series ideas, and has completed a film script and a TV treatment. Having grown up in Chicago and having been born in the shadow of the Shiloh battlefield, near Corinth, Mississippi, Walker has two writing traditions to uphold–the Windy City one and the Southern one–all of which makes him uniquely suited to write City for Ransom and its sequels, Shadows in White City and City of the Absent.

In 2003 and 2004 Walker saw an unprecedented seven novels released on the "unsuspecting public," as he puts it. Final Edge, Grave Instinct, and Absolute Instinct were published in 2004. City of the Absent debuted in 2008 from Avon. Walker lives in Charleston, West Virginia.

Blood Seers (Decoy #2)
After his family is brutally murdered by deranged thugs, Ryne Lanark decides to channel his violent rage constructively. He leaves his acting career behind, and signs on as a Chicago city cop. Using his mastery of disguise and calculating perseverance, Lanark winds his way through the seamy netherworld of drug dealers and killers. A tortured loner, a relentless crusader, Lt. Lanark is the ultimate equalizer.
The death toll on Chicago’s elevated trains is climbing. The killings seem pointless: train routes are targeted at random, weapons range from spears to poison gas to Uzis. Those victims still able to talk offer a mad variety of descriptions;they can’t even agree on the attacker’s sex. It’s not even clear how many killers are prowling the El.
Chicago’s gripped in panic and Lanark’s explosive temper is about to blow, pushed by a newsman’s threats to print the story of Lanark’s horrific past. Lanark and the killer walk the same tightrope: the killer leans one way, the detective the other. One of them must fall.
Wind Slayers (Decoy #3)
His family was brutally slaughtered by deranged thugs. Now former actor Ryne Lanark is channeling his explosive rage and extraordinary talents in a bold new direction–as a Chicago city cop. Using his stunning mastery of disguise, he threads his way unnoticed through a seamy nightworld of killers, punks, and con men. A tortured loner, a relentless crusader, Lt. Ryne Lanark is on the streets, waging his own personal war of retribution on society’s scum–stretching the boundaries of the law to its legal limits…..and beyond.
Members of a sinister "rich kid" sex-and-drug cult have begun turning up dead, with every drop of their blue blood carefully drained from their ravaged bodies. But the killer has made a big mistake. He’s disposing of the corpses in Ryne Lanark’s precinct. Since the murder of his loved ones, the haunted policeman’s been taking all homicides very personally. And now he’s willing to sacrifice anything, including his own life, to make sure an all-too-human vampire receives a lethal transfusion of justice–Lanark-style.
Hand-To-Hand (Decoy #4)
He likes hands.He likes their comfortable shape and weight and size.He likes the portability of the hands once they are severed from the rest of the ponderous body. He might carry them in his coat pocket, carry them to where he works, to the cafe, the park. But really, The Handyman isn’t a selfish sort, the hands are for someone else, someone without proper hands of their own. And besides, the "donors" never felt any pain, they barely even bled. The Handyman had worked out every detail.
Chicago Police Detective Ryne Lanark figured out the handless corpse probably deserved what he got, that he had violated some sacred code. When a second handless body was found, Lanark knew there would be more, that the slaughter was just beginning. Forensics warned him that the killer was brilliant-amazingly,the victims died of heart attack,not blood loss.
As the body count rises, lunatics from all over Chicago begin confessing to the murders. Then, a woman claiming to have escaped The Handyman comes forward. Her description is too precise to be faked. She could be the key to the whole case… or bait set by the Handyman. Either way, Lanark will meet The Handyman… alone.
