MEET SUSAN M. BOYER
Susan has been making up stories her whole life.

Susan’s short fiction has appeared in moonShine Review, Spinetingler Magazine, Relief Journal, The Petigru Review, and Catfish Stew.

Private Investigator Liz Talbot is a modern Southern belle: she blesses hearts and takes names. She carries her Sig 9 in her Kate Spade handbag, and her golden retriever, Rhett, rides shotgun in her hybrid Escape. When her grandmother is murdered, Liz high-tails it back to her South Carolina island home to find the killer. She’s fit to be tied when her police-chief brother shuts her out of the investigation, so she opens her own. Then her long-dead best friend pops in and things really get complicated. When more folks start turning up dead in this small seaside town, Liz must use more than just her wits and charm to keep her family safe, chase down clues from the hereafter, and catch a psychopath before he catches her.

CURIOUS ABOUT SUSAN?

ANGI: How often do you get lost in a story?

SUSAN: Oh my goodness! Nearly every time I read a book. If I don’t get lost in the story, I put it down and pick up another—but this almost never happens.

ANGI: What’s the first book you remember reading? 

SUSAN: The Wizard of Oz. I was so fascinated by that story that I read it many times and watched the movie every year. But I have to say, it gave me a lifelong, gut-wrenching fear of tornadoes.

ANGI: What’s your favorite fairy tale?

SUSAN: That would have to be Cinderella. I love that her prince went to such great lengths to find her. And of course the ending was very satisfying. I just love a happily ever after.

ANGI: Is there a playlist you’d recommend for reading your latest release?
SUSAN: The same one I used to write it—ocean surf on an endless loop.

ANGI: Where do you read and how often?
SUSAN: I read nearly every night after I’ve gone to bed, when the house is quiet. Unfortunately, I so often get lost in the story that I stay up far too late.

ANGI: What sound or noise do you love?
SUSAN: Rain. I love the sound of rain, especially on a tin roof.

ANGI: What was the first story you remember writing?
SUSAN: In fourth grade, I wrote a story about a girl who went west with her family on a wagon train.

ANGI: What’s your favorite movie of all time?
SUSAN: Sweet Home Alabama. I rarely watch a movie more than once, but I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve seen this one.

ANGI: What is your biggest vice?
SUSAN: Oh boy. Pasta. I would kill for a noodle, especially if it’s drenched in cheese sauce of any kind.

ANGI: How is it working with hot guys and sexy women all day?
SUSAN: It sure does make the day go by fast.

ANGI’S GOTTA ASK:  What’s your favorite scene from your DEBUT release, LOWCOUNTRY BOIL?

SUSAN’S GOTTA ANSWER:  Wow, that’s tough! I guess it would have to be the chase scene near the end of the book where Liz gets to ride a jet ski—so much fun! I can’t really say too much about it without giving too much away.

SUSAN’S GOT A QUESTION FOR READERS!

If you have an e-Reader, has the way you select books for your reading list changed since you bought it? How? If you haven’t bought an e-Reader, do you plan to, or do you think you’ll always want to touch the paper as you turn the page?
