"Dispel the Mist" with Marilyn Meredith in Bookland Heights

Dispel The Mist:

A Tulare County Supervisor, with both Native American and Mexican roots, dies under suspicious circumstances. Because of Deputy Tempe Crabtree’s own ties to the Bear Creek Indian Reservation, she’s asked to help with the investigation. To complicate matters, besides the supervisor’s husband, several others had reason to want the woman dead.

Tempe has unsettling dreams, dreams that may predict the future and bring back memories of her grandmother’s stories about the legend of the Hairy Man. Once again, Tempe’s life is threatened and this time, she fears no one will come to her rescue in time.

BH: What or who most influenced your writing?

MM: This is a wonderful site and I’m happy to be stopping here again. First and foremost I believe all the books I’ve read over the years had a great influence on my writing. I try to write the kind of books that I most enjoy reading. I love mysteries and especially those with characters who are in law enforcement—so that’s what I enjoy writing about.

BH: What is the one thing you want readers to know about your book(s) and/or writing?

MM: In my Deputy Tempe Crabtree books there is always something to do with Native American legends or mysticism. My books don’t have unnecessary sex or gore but definitely have unusual mysteries.

BH: What is your next project and when can we expect to read it?

MM: My latest book is out now, Dispel the Mist. My heroine, Deputy Tempe Crabtree, investigates the murder of a popular county supervisor and has an encounter with the Hairy Man. The Hairy Man is a Tule River Indian legend similar to Big Foot.

Jennifer Chase Has A "Compulsion" For Bookland Heights

When Serial Killers Terrorize a California Beach Community, One Woman Stands in Their Way

Emily Stone doesn’t have a badge. But that hasn’t stopped her from tracking down some of the West’s most dangerous child-killers. Armed with a digital SLR camera, laptop computer and her trusty Beretta, Stone uses her innate gift for detective work to identify the perps — and then anonymously e-mail the evidence to the cops.

Now, the hunt for two brazen serial killers on the loose right in her own coastal California town threatens to expose Stone’s identity — unraveling her carefully constructed cover and jeopardizing her life’s work. But when she gets too close to the action, this razor-sharp hunter becomes the hunted. Cooperating with the handsome local police detective could be the only hope for stopping the rampage directed at unsuspecting young women — and saving herself. Can they piece together the clues in time?

Compulsion mixes CSI-style investigation with a ripped-from-the-headlines plot and a dose of romance for a keeps-you-guessing, fast-paced and savvy thriller, right up until the shocking finale.
