Why did you keep it short?\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe all lead busy lives. I wanted to write something you could pick up and read in a week or two without losing any of the depth of character and charm of a longer length novel. In my experience, mysteries come in two lengths: novel or short story. I wanted something different.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eWas Carey, Montana, based on the town you live in?\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI live in western Montana but I chose to set Nightfall in eastern Montana because it increases Sadie's sense of isolation and loneliness--but also her resolve to make friends.

These both heavily influenced Nightfall -- although McHugh took it in an entirely different direction, I credit her with the spark that inspired this debut novel. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nikki Kincaid\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1720082855\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781720082859\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/11\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 124\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.31lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.29d","brand":"Nikki Kincaid","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48153812664575,"sku":"9781720082859","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1deb9dde-36d5-4282-85bb-1036858b67fe.jpg?v=1770785995","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/nightfall-nikki-kincaid-9781720082859","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
