My father died when I was 12.
No, he wasn’t in a car accident. No, he didn’t have a heart attack. No, he didn’t have cancer.
He
was murdered.
I looked into this family tragedy when I
became an adult and decided to pen a story using some of what I learned.
Writing this book was a particularly
cathartic experience for me in that I had control over every aspect of the book
,from who lived to who died, and unlike real life, that gave me a lot of peace.
Life
in Death is my first book and the first in the Kari
Marchant murder mystery series.
Kari, a social worker, is compelled to look
into the death of a girl she placed in foster care. As she works to uncover the truth, more
people die. Kari even becomes a suspect
at one point.
Each character is fully developed with a
backstory.
In fact, the first line in the book, “I remember everything,” is a snippet
from one of the character’s backstory.
There are a lot of plot twists and
turns. My goal was to keep the reader engaged
and guessing up to the last page.
By page 99, Kari receives some shocking
news about an acquaintance. She doesn’t want
to believe it and is somewhat in denial when she’s hit smack in the face with
the reality of the situation. It leaves
her horrified, shaken, desperate, and willing to do anything to right things
again.
I wanted my book to be one of those that
has to be read in one sitting because it’s just too good to put down.
I sincerely hope I’ve done that, but will
let the readers be the judge.
