KATHLEEN DONNELLY: Deadly Revenge

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. www.kathleendonnelly.com

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
