St. Claire's Writing Voice is expressed in a 3rd person, intimate POV. In each scene, the reader is placed into the head of the character through whom readers experience what the character sees, what they hear and feel and touch and how they think, and how they interpret things. In some cases, readers exit a scene curious, confused, happy, tearful, terrified, or plenty pissed off. Regardless of the emotion experienced, St. Claire feels he's accomplished what he'd set out to do: tug the reader into the story's actions via compelling storylines shown through characters in which readers will invest themselves.
Stories that make readers think.

It won't take many pages for readers to realize St. Claire does his homework. So much so his works are oftentimes described as Faction, rather than Fiction. Before, during, and after writing, St. Claire puts in the time to research his projects. When he writes about the complexities of piloting commercial aircraft, performing a delicate surgery, exposing faith healers for the frauds they are, investigating human smugglers, trekking the Greenland coast in search of a long-rumored but never discovered WWII Nazi missile test base, his stories ring true.
Stories readers remember.
Great stories are told through great characters. And St. Claire's stories are littered with them. From a former minor league hockey player turned pawn shop owner who finds himself unwittingly caught up in a deadly, international game of cat and mouse, to a blind, savant teen who has discovered how to turn back on cells that delay aging
Great stories are told through great characters. And St. Claire's stories are littered with them. From a former minor league hockey player turned pawn shop owner who finds himself unwittingly caught up in a deadly, international game of cat and mouse, to a blind, savant teen who has discovered how to turn back on cells that delay aging, to a college coed who buys her first house only to learn that spirits of recently murdered homeless men are inexplicably trapped inside and seeking to avenge their deaths, to a young, albino boy whose older brother was killed while working to expose an international child-pornography syndicate, St. Claire's characters are flawed, funny, ambitious, hopeful, slothful, egotistical, selfish as hell, self-righteous, and sometimes absolutely adorable. In other words, they are us.

The Stories Coming Soon
St. Claire's debut is titled The Frequency:
When a pawn shop owner in Warroad, MN. learns a box he bought filled with Inuit trinkets likewise includes drawings to a military base which powerful people wish to keep a secret, he uncovers a chain of intrigue powerful enough to shatter everything he believes -- and everyone he loves.
This will be followed by: COVENANT
Ransom Dunn has made a career of exposing frauds, charlatans, and those who exploit the power of faith. But when his investigation into an ancient Hopi prophecy draws him deep into the mesas of northern Arizona, he encounters events that defy everything he believes about the world—and himself. Strange storms, impossible healings, and a mysterious old man challenge the convictions of a skeptic who has spent his life demanding proof of the unprovable.
As an ancient covenant approaches its fulfillment, Ransom finds himself caught between science and spirituality, doubt and belief, and a growing realization that the greatest truths may demand something far more difficult than understanding. A story of love, sacrifice, redemption, and humanity's responsibility to the world it inhabits -- for a time -- COVENANT asks what happens when a man who believes in nothing is called upon to save something greater than himself.
Two down, fourteen more are ready to go. More soon.
