AUTHOR INTERVIEW

Did you do a lot of research for The Secret Broker?
Yes. I had to review a lot about self-defence, guns used by the FBI, and about the FBI in general. There was also the world of spies to research—technology and different networks utilized by different organizations.

How do you come up with the title for The Secret Broker?
It just made sense. The organization brokers secrets, hence, The Secret Brokers. It also came from a previous series, The Nicci Beauvoir Trilogy (To My Senses, Recovery, and Sacrifice) . The organization and the people in it were introduced in that series.

Who designed the Cover of your book? Do you have a lot of input into the process?
The cover was designed by Deranged Doctor Designs, and yes, I had a lot of input into the final product.

Do you play music, have a favourite chair, or special routine for when you are writing?
I have a desk where I write, but I don’t listen to music. Other than sitting and writing for several hours a day, I don’t have a special routine associated with it.

Did you have a playlist for this book?
There are a few songs I feel describe the characters pretty well. Shape of My Heart, and It’s Probably Me by Sting. Ed Sheeran - Shape of You.

If you had to choose to be a character from The Secret Broker, which would you be and why?
I would love to be Gwen Marsh. She is feisty, matches Dallas in skill set, and has lots of secrets.

Do you have a favourite book out of the ones you have wrote? And why is it your favourite?
My last release in 2019, Realm, about the wife of Alexander the Great, Roxanna, is my favorite. The research dedicated to that novel was lifelong. It was the book I’d wanted to write since the age of 16. That story is my baby!
