Crime writers love poisons. Even those who write the more cozy variety. I mean, arsenic and old lace? Arsenic, the queen of poisons, is often used as are the opioids and amphetamines and a few others. But maybe you want to explore more uncommon, and deadly, options for your story. Some are easy to come by, others a bit more difficult but all have been used and just might add to your story.

Under the Covers with Mary Bess Dunn “Fate Havens”

In this Under the Covers episode, we meet Mary Bess Dunn, author of the literary fiction book, “Fate Havens.”

“Fate Havens” is a set of inter-linked character driven stories that attempt to make sense of the world around us. The tales addresses societal expectations and the persistence of familial love. Again and again, the stories return to core questions: What is a good life? What do we owe to family? Dunn’s characters never settle into simple emotions, and many stories have an engaging mood of nostalgia, tinged with sadness.

Jennie Fields, author of “The Age of Desire,” calls the stories “exquisitely drawn tales of the fate we all face: hope vs. reality, love vs. aloneness and the desire to connect vs. the lonely human journey. Brilliant, insightful and touching, ‘Fate Havens’ leaves the reader thinking about the meaning of his own choices, her own life. A beautiful, insightful volume you won’t soon forget.”

Gail Martin Epic Fantasy, Urban Fantasy and More

In today’s episode, we meet Gail Martin, a prolific author of epic fantasy, urban fantasy and steampunk genres, among others, and we visit four of her strange worlds.

Gail has always loved ghost stories, vampires, werewolves, haunted houses and things that go bump in the night. Her books have necromancers, powerful witches and spirit mediums, plenty of vengeful ghosts, creepy castles, curses, magic and monsters. That’s what she loves to read, and what she really enjoys writing.

We get a glimpse into four books in four different series: “Wasteland Marshalls (Book 1),” “The Joe Mack Shadow Council Files (Cauldron, Book 1),” “Spells, Salt and Steel (Night Moves)” and “Assassin’s Honor (Assassins of Landria, Book 1).”

Gail starts the show with a reading from “Wasteland Marshalls,” a story where the last two US Marshals mete out rough justice in a near-future, post-apocalyptic world. Think ‘Boondock Saints meets The Walking Dead’.
