Our conversation with the author:
Writers-Editors Network: What inspired you to write this book?
Cindy Davis: I have always been a mystery lover. Writing a series set in one of the most beautiful places in the country seemed right.
Writers-Editors Network: Have you written other books with these characters?
Cindy Davis: There are five books in this series so far.
Writers-Editors Network: Where is your favorite place to write books?
Cindy Davis: I have an office at the front of my house. I used to be able to watch deer and turkeys in the field across the street — then somebody built a house there. The injustice of it all!
Writers-Editors Network: Did you outline this book first? Or just start writing?
Cindy Davis: I am an outliner. I need to know where I've dropped all the clues and red herrings and where each character was at a given moment.
Writers-Editors Network: What was your favorite scene or chapter to write and why?
Cindy Davis: There's a chase scene that culminates in some humor. I like the addition of the humor to alleviate some of the tension — it was like real life.
Writers-Editors Network: Do you have any writing rituals?
Cindy Davis: Not really. I am most productive early in the mornings, so that's when I tend to write.
Writers-Editors Network: When did you first realize you wanted to be a writer?
Cindy Davis: Not until my kids were all moved from the house; although I think the idea was there when I was little.
Writers-Editors Network: What do you like to do when you're not writing?
Cindy Davis: Hike, needlework, read, travel, teach.
Writers-Editors Network: Do you have any advice for other writers?
Cindy Davis: Never accept that you're done learning about your craft.
