Ace Collins’s standalone novels cover a wide range of settings and stories. From the historical fiction of Reich of Passage (2011) and The Yellow Packard (2012) to the mystery of The Fruitcake Murders (2015) and the Christmas-themed The Christmas Star (2012), these books show Collins working across different subgenres while keeping his Christian fiction sensibility.
The ten standalones span from 1995 to 2022, with Darkness Before Dawn being the earliest and The Last Imprint the most recent. Each book tells its own complete story, so readers can pick any title that appeals to them without worrying about reading order. The Color of Justice (2014) and Hollywood Lost (2015) bring historical mystery elements, while Touchdown Tommy (2016) takes a lighter, sports-focused approach.
