Jamie Hill's FAMILY SECRETS now available from Accomplice Press!

As if stumbling over a dead body isn't enough, Crystal Cartwright finds herself playing surrogate mother to two small boys when their father–her neighbor–doesn't come home. The kids aren't much trouble, but the thieves, drug dealers and kidnappers they're about to encounter are.   

Detective Jack Dunlevy, a cop down on his luck, draws the cases no one else wants. A simple investigation involving a dead homeless man quickly changes as Crystal enlists Jack's help with the children. Drawn into a mystery that none of them could have anticipated, they're faced with a situation that will change their lives forever.

Available now in ebook, and soon in print paperback.

Linda Madl, Barbara Baldwin, Lee Killough and Sheri L. McGathy will be presenting the program:
