Giving Willa A Voice – Jodie Bentley
As a federal judge, Willa Carson of my Hunt for Justice thrillers is never hesitant to make herself heard. That’s why it was so important that I find a strong voice to narrate the audio books Secret Justice and Wasted Justice, starring Willa Carson. When I heard Jodie Bentley’s audition tape, I knew she was the woman […]
If Hot Chocolate Were a Thriller Novel…
Like a good thriller, every cup of hot chocolate should have a twist. That’s not necessarily a fact. It probably is.

The Cuban Sandwich: Fit For A Foodie
Have you ever had a Cuban sandwich? In Jack in the Green, Carlos Gaspar remarks that he doesn’t consider himself a foodie. “A good Cuban sandwich was good enough for him. And any dessert made with guava.” He’s thinking about food… as usual… on the way to dinner at George’s Place – the restaurant owned […]
Today is National Defy Superstition Day (No Joke!)
Can you believe we’ve got a National Defy Superstition Day? (Who knew?) Are you superstitious? Kim Otto isn’t, but in Get Back Jack, she’s amused when Frances Neagley says, “Fist bump. It’s what the special investigators always did before and after a mission.” “Who knew you were so superstitious,” Kim said. Defying superstitions is the […]
