After a short career in law, Leanne Kale Sparks has returned to her first love—writing about murder, mayhem, and crime. Currently, she is an author with Crooked Lane Books and her current release is The Wrong Woman. Leanne is also working on a new series featuring an FBI agent hunting down her best friend’s murderer. She currently resides in Texas with her husband and German Shepherd, Zoe. 

Among other things, Carter and Leanne discuss discovering the genre that fits their voice, what Leanne learned from self-publishing, and the pros and cons of a standalone vs. series. At the end of the conversation, they devise a chilling tale that will leave you wanting more, starting with a sentence from David Bell’s The Finalists.
