Mark Thielman cooks up intrigue in The Devil’s Kitchen Ep. 30 of My Bookcase Slays

Mark Thielman’s debut novel The Devil’s Kitchen includes nearly everything but the kitchen sink! A hidden treasure in Yellowstone National Park, plus multiple murders, a hidden message in a painting, a modern-day timeline paired with one in the 1790s involving the French Revolution and a wild expedition to the farthest reaches of America’s brand-new Louisiana Purchase. The Devil’s Kitchen is the first Johnson and Nance Mystery and Mark Thielman dishes about the clickbait that inspired this series, cool secrets he’s learned while exploring America’s National Parks, how his work as a prosecutor shaped his lead character, and how he mapped out the wildest road trip I’ve encountered in fiction all year! There’s art, geologic features, and the sweetest pet sidekick who stole this reader’s heart. If you love a twisty plot and treasure hunt, buckle up for this wild ride!
