Join us as two thriller authors, Samantha Downing and Layne Fargo, visit to discuss their latest novels.
From the twisted mind behind USA Today Bestseller My Lovely Wife comes He Started It, the story of a family—not unlike your own—just with a few more violent tendencies. The three Morgan siblings come together for the first time years when their wealthy grandfather dies, and to fulfill their grandfather's final wish--and secure their inheritance--they must complete a cross-country road trip together. But time with family can be complicated, especially when it involves secrets, a missing person, revenge, and a body in the trunk.
Samantha Downing currently lives in New Orleans, where she is furiously typing away on her next thrilling book.
An edgy, addictive, and fiendishly clever tale of ambition, deceit, and power, Temper is a timely, heart-in-your-throat psychological thriller that will leave you breathless. After years of struggling in Chicago's theater scene, actress Kira Rascher finally lands the role of a lifetime, but she must deal with director Malcolm Mercer, known for pushing performers past their limits, as well as Joanna, the theatre's co-founder who views Kira as a threat.
Layne Fargo is the author of the thrillers Temper and They Never Learn. She’s a Pitch Wars mentor, Vice President of the Chicagoland chapter of Sisters in Crime, and the cocreator of the podcast Unlikeable Female Characters. Layne lives in Chicago with her partner and their pets.
