Press Release from Earl Emerson

Earl Emerson is one of my all-time favorite mystery writers. He's also a hunky Seattle fireman.

I received the following press release while out of town and wanted to share it with everyone who happens by my blog:

Dear Friends,

On April 25, 2006, my novel FIRETRAP will be published by Ballantine Books.

The story revolves around the investigation of a fire that burned a black social club to the ground in Seattle. Trey Brown, who has been commissioned by a community group to unravel the secrets of the fire, is soon pitted against his estranged brother, who not only comes from a wealthy white family but is now the mayor and headed for higher political office. As the investigation gets under way, nineteen years of hidden family history begin to come to the surface for Trey as he is forced to confront his cloudy past.

I'll be doing talks and signings in Washington for FIRETRAP as well as for the paperback edition of THE SMOKE ROOM, which will also be released in April.

Hope this finds you well.

Earl Emerson
