Book Review: Cards of Sin by K.J. Dahlen

Synopsis:
When Reporter Cheyenne Gentry gets an Instant Message she tries to ignore it, but the sender wants her to know he murdered someone tonight. Cheyenne thinks it’s a hoax but finds out it’s not. Then the killer tells her he wants her to write his story. Cheyenne wants nothing to do with the story or the killer but the killer won’t let her refuse his request. Will he let her live long enough to find him or will she become another chapter to his story?








My Review

I have always been a fan of  murder mysteries and really enjoyed this one. From the very beginning Dahlen had me hookedIt starts off with an instant message from a killer to a reporter. The killer wants the reporter the write his story and has threaten to kill someone if she did not. The killer also uses playing cards which have a strong meaning in the murders. The book is fast paced and a quick read. Definitely consider reading this book. 



BIO
I live in a small town (population495) in Wisconsin. From my deck I can see the Mississippi River on one side and the bluffs, where eagles live and nest on the other side. I live with my husband Dave and dog Sammy. My two children are grown and I have two grandchildren. I love to watch people and that has helped me with my writing. I often use people I watch as characters in my books and I always try to give my characters some of my own values and habits.

I love to create characters and put them in a troubling situation then sit back and let them do all the work. My characters surprise even me at times. At some point in the book they take on a life of their own and the twists and turns they create becomes the story. Of all the stories I could write I found I like mystery/thrillers the best. I like to keep my readers guessing until the very end of the book.

My book titles are: Bones, The Darkness Within, Meghan’s Legacy, Shadow Chaser, Witness, Secrets and Lies, Legacy of Murder, The Unknown Son, The Prophet, No One to Hear You Scream, Bradbury Inn, Murderous Intent, Wrong Number, Fall from Grace, The House on Berkley Street.

My next books coming out are, Cards Of Sin, Blood Memories, Phoenix Rising. A Murder in her Past has been accepted but not started going through the editing process yet.

Cards of Sin will be out August 10th and Blood Memories will be released sometime in August. I’m waiting on the test copy now.

I’m not sure when Phoenix Rising will be out. It was supposed to come out in Sept. Xchyler recently got a new Editor and everything has to go through her
