  4. Hey Sunny,
    I had never read your bio bulb before (alliteration warning), lol. I am definitely going to pick up your books. Your former police work was so dangerous, sad, frustrating, violent…and rewarding, I hope. I can imagine that fictionalizing actual events must be very cathartic for you. As a person living with PTSD, I can sympathize with how working in such a dangerous environment can affect a person. Anyway, I’m looking forward to reading all your books, have a lovely Thanksgiving!
