“Someone killed her.'
A quick inhalation. 'Are you sure? Maybe it was a heart attack or something?'
'Only if her heart attacked her face.”
E.A. Aymar, No Home for Killers

“The police said it was a random break-in. Or, let’s be real, some angry sex worker who’d finally had enough of his bullshit.”
E.A. Aymar, No Home for Killers

“And her uncle. Determined to control her under a guise of concern. Emotionally distant and secretive but always present.”
E.A. Aymar, No Home for Killers

E.A. And I just bought The Child Returns! Happily added to my ever-growing "to read" list. So nice meeting you last night, and I'm hoping our paths cross again, on and offline.


Kristen Taber Thanks for the add. It was a pleasure meeting you last night! I picked up your book this morning and I'm looking forward to starting it :). You know, in between chasing a toddler and trying to get those coveted 2K words a day. (I think I can...I think I can...lol)

Love your profile pic, btw
