I loved the atmospheric descriptions of the moors.
The characters were well developed and believable.
If you enjoy mysteries, or thrillers, this one is well worth a read.
Just Before I Died by S. K. Tremayne 5 Stars Great read! A psychological thriller that had me gripped from the first, to the last chapter. Full of twists and turns that keep me guessing. The author did a great job of building the tension.

YES! Reading can and very often does lead to writing! I’ve never met an author that didn’t love to read a good story. Thinking back and trying to remember the first time I read a book, I realize that it's been well over fifty years that I've been an avid reader. In elementary school, I loved losing myself in stories, especially fairy tales. I checked the Grimms Book of Fairy Tales out of the school library so many times that they had to make a new card. Oh, how I loved getting lost in those fairy tales where everyone lived happily ever after. Not only did I read the words in books, I lived the words. In my mind’s eye, I could clearly visualize the characters as the words brought them to life. I could see the setting where the story took place and literally put myself there. Through the written word, I've traveled all over the world. I've seen Paris, Rome, Venice, Ireland, England, Japan, Australia, Switzerland and every state in the United States. I learned about sex by reading Harold Robbin’s novels. I learned about survival by reading Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath. I got lost in Jane Eyre, by Charlotte Bronte, where I first learned about abuse and social criticism. I learned about politics by reading The Captains and the Kings by Taylor Caldwell. I could go on and on, but you catch my drift. If I listed all the great books I’ve read, this blog would turn into a book itself. Needless to say; I LOVE to read. As a child growing up, my parents were of the strict holy-roller religion and we had no TV in our home because it was considered to be of the devil. My older sister and I literally received our worldly education through reading. Many nights after Mama called for lights out, my sister and I would huddle under our covers with a flashlight and continue reading until we fell asleep. As a result, both she and I are authors today. The first inspired writing I can recall, was around the age of eight when I wrote a gospel song. Later, I wrote many songs, some of which are recorded. I have written screenplays, short stories, and poems as well as the novels that I currently write. Thank you for taking this RRBC SPOTLIGHT AUTHOR tour with me. See you at the next stop!
