True Crime Fanatics- True Crimes of the Hudson Valley Lecture

Our idyllic Hudson Valley is beautiful on the outside, but beneath the surface lurks the darkness of notorious true crimes. In this class, local author Jodé Millman will explore the headline-making crimes that inspired her award-winning “Queen City Crimes” mystery series, and how fiction can be deadlier than true crime. You may be surprised to learn that a murderer lived next door!

Murder Takes a Vacation

Read my latest Booktrib.com Review

Here's a teaser of my latest review:

In S.A. Crosby’s latest novel, “King of Ashes,” money manager to the stars Roman Carruthers has long abandoned his Virginia roots. For years, he’s been living large in Atlanta, making millions for his clients, and indulging in every fantasy he can imagine. The deep scars of a troubled childhood remain buried within him and his hometown of Jefferson Run, Virginia, a small city on the edge of ruin by crime, drugs, and zombie buildings.
He's also left behind his ambitious father and sister, Neveah, who run the family’s crematorium business, and his wayward younger brother, Dante, who can’t quit his addiction to drugs, women, and the dark underbelly of Jefferson Run. They are all haunted by the twenty-year-old disappearance of their beloved mother, Bonita, whose death sparks layers of guilt that binds them together while pulling them apart.
The prodigal son, Roman returns home when his father is hospitalized after a near fatal auto collision with an oncoming train. He immediately discovers that Dante is deeply in debt to a local gang that rules Jefferson Run, and which is threatening his family at every turn. He suspects the gang is responsible for recent tire slashings at the crematorium and his father’s accident.
