Author Interview with Chelsea Cain This Friday, Sept. 5
Just to give readers a heads up that the next author interview I have scheduled is for mystery author, Chelsea Cain. Her new book, Sweetheart, just recently came out in hardcover.
I am really excited about this series because for one, it features damaged cop, Archie Sheridan and I love damaged. Then there’s his twisted relationship with serial killer aka Beauty Killer, Gretchen Lowell. The interview was a lot of fun and I hope many of you enjoy it. Big thank you to Chelsea Cain!
About the author
My name is Keishon and I'm an avid reader of romance, crime fiction and graphic novels. I tend to read all over the map and prefer the older romances from the 90's rather than the new romances of today. I enjoy reading and discussing books and I hope you enjoy your visit here. Some of my favorite authors include but are not limited to Laura Kinsale, Penelope Williamson, Kathleen Eagle, Michael Connelly, Julia Spencer-Fleming and my latest crush is on Nordic crime novelist, Jo Nesbø (start with The Redbreast if interested).
