Morgan’s Landing is a fast-paced, unpredictable mystery you’ll devour in a single sitting.”

 ~ Indies Today

 

In the small Maryland town of Morgan’s Landing, fourteen-year-old Julie Morgan is living in comfort with her wealthy family. She disappears on her way to school after a spat with her twin sister.

Detective Jim Brady, married and the father of two, has been on the Morgan’s Landing police force for twelve years. He identifies a few suspects in the girl’s disappearance—Is it the fired school janitor, a paroled sex offender, Julie’s computer teacher…or his own teenage son? Jim can’t believe his son could be involved, but his wife is convinced the boy is hiding something.

He needs to find Julie before the worst happens—and keep the peace at home.

I was born and raised in San Diego, California and earned a BA in English from San Diego State University and an MLS from UCLA. I began my career as a reference and collection development librarian in the Art and Music Section of the San Diego Public Library and then transferred to the Literature and Languages Section, where I had the pleasure of managing the Central Library’s Fiction collection. Although I also enjoy reading biography, memoir, and history, fiction remains my first love. In addition to the three R’s—reading, writing, and research—I enjoy Scrabble, movies, and travel.

 

My earliest ambition was to be a “book maker” and I wrote my first story, “Judy and the Fairies,” with a plot stolen from a comic book, at the age of six. I broke into print in college with a story in the San Diego State University literary journal, The Phoenix, but most of my magazine publications came after I left the library to spend more time on my writing.

 

My stories have been published in numerous journals, including Eclectica, Thema Literary Journal, Avalon Literary Review, The Nassau Review, and Orbis, and in the anthologies Short Story America, Vol. 2, The Captive and the Dead, Australia Burns, 2023 in a Flash, and Apocalypse.

  1. Linda,
    How did you come up with the plot of this book? How long was the writing process?

    1. Hi, Deborah. I was interested not so much in the solution to the mystery as in how a small town detective would go about solving it and how the townspeople would react and speculate. Most of the writing was done in less than three months, but there was a lot of revision after that.

  2. This so sounds like a great read and one that will keep me interested for sure!

  3. Where do you leave a comment? I clicked on the the blitz link and it says oops page can't be found.

  4. I had the same problem, but it would have just looped back here anyway. You can leave your comments here.--in fact you did! Thanks for dropping by.
