Wind Over Marshdale (2012)
Wind Over Marshdale is the story of the struggles within a small prairie town when hidden evil and ancient medicine resurface. Caught in the crossfire, new teacher Rachel Bosworth finds herself in love with two men at once. First, there is Thomas Lone Wolf, a Cree man whose blood lines run back to the days of ancient medicine but who has chosen to live as a Christian and faces prejudice from every side as he tries to expose the truth. Then there is Con McKinley, local farmer who has to face some demons of his own. Add to the mix a wayward minister seeking anonymity in the obscurity of the town; eccentric twin sisters - one heavily involved in the occult and the other a fundamentalist zealot; and a host of other 'characters' whose lives weave together unexpectedly for the final climax. This suspenseful story is one of human frailty - prejudice, cowardice, jealousy, and greed - magnified by powerful spiritual forces that have remained hidden for centuries, only to be broken in triumph by grace.

Play It Again (2011)
Sparks fly when an ex-rock and roll junkie and a stuffy accountant rendezvous at a local resort, but neither are prepared for the emotional entanglements, family complications, and threat from the past that unexpectedly resurfaces. Set in the 1980s, this story brings two opposing forces together in a clash of romance and danger, while its musical undertones highlight the theme that God can turn anything into beautiful music. Play It Again is the much anticipated prequel to Tracy's debut novel And the Beat Goes On. Find out where Mark Graham's journey began in this, the story of his parents.

Deceived and framed by trusted friends and colleagues, Mark struggles to safeguard his findings and protect his reputation in order to unearth the mystery behind the Nephilim.

Fast paced action sure to spark debate over creation vs. evolution

About Tracy Krauss
I am an author, teacher, artist, playwright and director.I write inspirational romantic suspense - some call it 'Edgy Christian Fiction'. I have lived in many places in Northern Canada - and I mean north! (Polar bears, midnight sun, north of 60 ...)This has given me lots of fodder for my imagination. I am also the mother of four grown children and currently live with my husband, a former pastor, in Tumbler Ridge - the waterfall capital of British Columbia. Visit my website for more about my writing and to see what's new.
