Nobody’s Secret gets a star from Shelf Awareness!

April 29th, 2013, 11:49 am

Jennifer Brown, editor at Shelf Awareness, did an interview with me a few months ago about Nobody’s Secret.  Her questions were so smart that she made me feel smart for writing a book that inspired such clever questions!  The review just came out and Nobody’s Secret has another star. I’m so pleased.  This novel was a departure for me. It was my first mystery and I knew I was playing with fire by borrowing Emily Dickinson as my “detective.”  Jennifer got the concept and liked it.  Call me grateful and humble today!
