KATHLEEN DONNELLY_ Deadly Revenge

Kathleen Donnelly: Deadly Revenge Website: https://kathleendonnelly.com/ There’s nothing more terrifying than a trail of smoke over a summer-dry national forest—at least, that’s what Forest Service law enforcement officer Maya Thompson thinks when she and her boyfriend, sheriff’s deputy Josh Colten, spot the first signs of a fire over the Colorado mountains. But when she learns that a teen girl has been kidnapped and taken deep into the wilderness, a new fear grips her: If she and her K-9 partner, Juniper, can’t reach them fast enough, the fire might not just destroy her beloved forest—it might be the end to an innocent girl’s life.

Tess Perko Co-hosts On the Air with Florenza

Sometimes the longest journey isn't across a continent—it's the one that leads you back to yourself. When grief becomes too heavy to carry, some people go home. Others run. This week, author Tess Perko joins On the Air with Florenza to discuss her moving debut novel, Learning to Whistle. After losing her mother to breast cancer, Leonie chooses the unfamiliar streets of South America over the familiarity of home, hoping distance will quiet her pain. Instead, she discovers that healing has its own itinerary. Through breathtaking landscapes, unexpected friendships, and moments of quiet self-discovery, Learning to Whistle reminds us that sometimes getting lost is the very thing that helps us find ourselves. #LearningToWhistle #TessPerko #ContemporaryFiction #BookPodcast #WomenSupportingWomen #HealingJourney #BookLovers #GriefAndHope

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!
