"The most satisfying mystery I've read in ages." ~Joan Nienhuis, Top 1% of Reviewers on Goodreads
Laurel Falls, N.C., 1985: I was done with being a crime reporter in Washington, D.C., tired of all the violence. So I packed up and moved to Laurel Falls, N.C. Peace and quiet—until I found the body. The sheriff called it a suicide. No way. Trouble was, without my usual sources, how much of an investigation could I pull off? But my neighbor Abit Bradshaw and I teamed up and cooked up a plan to solve that crime. Of course plans rarely pan out the way you think. ~Della Kincaid

About the author
My writing career started in the most unlikely place—a town of 200 people in the mountains of North Carolina. Although it was many years ago, I recall that day with the fiercest clarity. I'd found the Campbell Folk School, an amazing center for art, craft, and music (and featured in my novels as The Hickson School of American Studies). The director eventually asked if I’d like to learn public relations. To be honest, I should have answered, “What’s that?” Instead, I said, “Sure,” and took to it like ink to newsprint. I haven’t stopped writing since.
These days, I spend my time writing my Appalachian Mountain Mysteries series. I started them as a way to share amazing stories from my back-to-the-land experience in the N.C. mountains. I made mistakes by the wheelbarrow load , but I wouldn’t take anything for those years. My Appalachian Mountain Mysteries pay homage to the people of Appalachia who taught me so much.
Before my novel-writing days, I crafted 1,200 articles for arts and culture magazines such as Southern Living, Country Living, AmericanStyle, Southwest Art, Yoga Journal, American Cinematographer, Chile Pepper, and Restaurants USA. Newspaper articles about art, food, and business ran in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Charlotte Observer, Seattle Post-Intelligencer, washington
I've also written 15 nonfiction books, including several on the art and craft of writing. For the past 10 years, I've also had the privilege to guide people through their own book-writing process—both fiction and nonfiction. Together we turn their dreams into reality.
