A Note
From Nancy:
Hello
all and thanks to Celia for hosting me here today. BONES ALONG THE HILL began
when Neva Oakley whispered in my ear, “Hi. My name is Neva and I fix the faces
of the dead.” Neva and I wrote the story together over the next few years,
weaving in Gray Ledbetter’s inexplicable suicide and bringing hunky architect
Davis Pratt to work with us. It’s available in both electronic and paperback
formats in all the usual places. My second novel, a paranormal romance titled
BLESSED CURSE is in second draft. I hope to have it out in the fall of this
year. Have a great summer!

Book Excerpt:
Neva
flattened herself against the wall.
Uncle
Rex was outside. There was nothing to worry about. Then she remembered that
Davis had soundproofed his walls during the renovation, saying the houses here
were so close his neighbor could hear a half-hearted fart.
She’d
thought it funny at the time.
A
rush of adrenaline sent her heart galloping.
You are such a coward. There’s
nobody in here.
Unless
it was Davis. Davis, who was not in England, who came home to find someone in
his house and noises from his sanctuary. In which case the gun was in his hand.
She
should call out.
If
it wasn’t Davis, she’d lose any chance at surprise.
She turned the scissors so the sharp end
was poised to stab
Question
for you Dear Reader: When you think of crimes against women, do you
usually think of human trafficking?
