Bad Blood of Rosewood (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781539165545)

G. M. Barlean is a Nebraska author writing mystery and suspense with a midwestern voice. Her characters are realistic and believable and could be anyone the reader might know. She has been a professional photographer, managed a small town Opera House, and worked with entrepreneurs as a Chamber of Commerce Director. For one hot minute, she thought she'd be a professional chef and went to culinary school to pursue the dream. She couldn't take the heat and so left the kitchen. Now, all of her experiences sprinkle into her writing in drops and splashes-an exchange of words here, a quirky saying there, and even a recipe or two. It takes a curious mind to stay entertained in a one-stop-light town. However, interesting things can happen anywhere, especially in Barlean's books. Barlean enjoys reading suspense, horror, and literary fiction. Some of her favorite authors are Stephan King, John Irving, and Dean Koontz. She is an independent author and has her own publishing imprint called, Less Traveled Roads Publishing. Barlean also hosts a weekly blog featuring Indie author's Book Trailers. "I've been told I have a specific writing voice. I call it down-to-earth midwestern. No frills. I'm not trying to impress anyone with big words or thoughts so deep you drown in them. I just want to tell a simple story."
