Authors on the Air host Pam Stack welcomes law enforcement officer and author of authentic hard-boiled crime fiction GAVIN REESE.

About Gavin: Gavin Reese grew up in the rural American Southwest, eventually moving to the Big City with his family, and considers both New Mexico and Arizona “home.” Because he had such tremendous role models in his parents and grandparents, Gavin felt an intense call to service and had planned on joining the military after college. Despite having worn his university’s uniform on the playing field and running half-marathons for fun, childhood medical issues prevented him from serving in that capacity. Two lifelong friends soon began working as cops, had Gavin out for a few ride-alongs, and he started the prolonged application process to join them. Gavin's goal is to write 500,000 words a year!

About ROME: THE ABSOLVER: Right now a team of Godly men stands ready. Positioned around the globe, they are called to protect us from the deadliest predators on Earth. As he plunged his attacker’s blade deep into the man’s abdomen, Father Michael Thomas thought he understood the difference between murder and justifiable homicide.

After Church officials learn what happened in that dark back-alley amid the slums of Bogota, they urgently whisked Michael away to an isolated compound in rural Wyoming. Alongside a handful of trainees, he lives under an assumed name, learns the skills of a moral investigator and clandestine operative, and faces the ethical dilemma repeatedly placed before him: when is a deliberate death a righteous act?

Authors on the Air host Pam Stack welcomes writer CLAIRE FULLERTON to the studio to discuss her new book MOURNING DOVE.

About Claire: "I’ve always known I'm a story teller. Having been born in Wayzata, Minnesota and transplanted at the age of ten to Memphis, Tennessee I learned early that the art of observation can be an acclimating life saver. My mother told me that as a child, I would sit and watch people. I was thirty years old the first time she said this, then she added,“You still do.” If what is known as “the writer’s eye” is the ability to see the world from the outside in, then I am happily guilty. Music radio led me to the music business.Three weeks after my return from vacation I reviewed the journal I kept, while living in Ireland, and knew I had a good story. I started the draft of what became my second published novel, but years intervened between its beginning and publication. During those years, I wrote a creative, weekly column for The Malibu Surfside News, and submitted to writing contests and magazines as I focused on developing my craft. I wrote a paranormal mystery about a woman who suspects she has lived before, and titled it A Portal in Time. Vinspire Publishing published the book, so I decided to show them the manuscript of my Irish novel. Vinspire Publishing published it under the title Dancing to an Irish Reel the following year. My third novel is titled Mourning Dove. It's a sins-of-the-father, Southern Family Saga, set in 1970's and 1980's Memphis. It was published by Firefly Southern Fiction in June of 2018."
