Montana Noir
Montana Noir by James GradyMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I loved being a part of this anthology and am grateful to author Jim Grady for including me in this project set in our home state. I enjoyed each writer's take on place. Writing a mystery is one of my goals and penning this short story has brought me closer.

| This is an incredible novel. I underlined so many passages while reading it, and am in awe of Kate Thompson's research and her dedication to the women that history has forgotten. This book takes place in London during the Blitz and in Poland in the L ...more | |
