The Visitor
(The First in the KT Morgan Series)
“The Tension builds on each page.”
When Christine Westman bumps against a stranger in a Jacksonville supermarket, the killer gives her only one month to live. He moves into Christine’s walk-in closet and watches her nightly preparing for the day of her death. Can Christine survive when midnight hits and The Visitor comes calling?
Small Town Terror
(The Second in the KT Morgan Series)
Winner of the 2016 Independent Digital Awards for Short Suspense
“This gripping story didn’t disappoint.”
Strangers are a rare commodity in Bisby, a small town fading away in a quiet corner of North Carolina. Liz Corman runs the town’s diner while her husband Billy tends to the auto shop next door. When KT Morgan’s vehicle breaks down, Liz reluctantly offers the intriguing stranger the use of their spare room. The drama that unfolds with KT’s arrival is nothing compared to what awaits Liz and the town folk, as three men head their way with revenge and murder on their agenda.
Reunion
(The Third in the KT Morgan Series)
…another edge of your seat, hanging by your fingernails, suspenseful offering
Twelve-year-old Becky Sidleman thinks things might be looking up when she bumps into KT Morgan in the small town of Marshland, Indiana. However, two men on their way will show Becky that sometimes excitement isn’t always what it’s cracked up to be.
Rayleene Davenport’s world turns upside down when she learns of her husband’s one-night stand. They eventually separate, but when she receives a call that he’s been shot, she rushes to him. After discovering someone placed a hit on him, she decides to help him recuperate in Lincolnville, Georgia. Can she rebuild the trust lost before a killer ends their reunion for good?
One mistake has grown into a nightmare for Ty Davenport. He’s on the verge of losing the one person he loves most in the world, his wife, Rayleene. During his recuperation, they start to grow closer again, however, a killer in the shadows comes out of hiding. And Ty soon discovers Rayleene is hiding a painful secret that can do more to destroy their marriage than any killer’s weapon.
And Now….for Kathryn’s Five on Friday Questions.
If you could choose your last meal, and you weren’t in prison, what would it be?
Have to be chili cheese fries from Mudville Grille on Beach Blvd. in Jacksonville. They are the best in the city.
If there was one person, real, fiction or fantasy, you could spend time with, who would it be and why?
Harlan Coban. He does the best twists in his books. I’ll think I figured out who the bad guy is and by the end of the chapter, this same person has been killed. His books definitely keep me reading. I’d love to pick his brain.
What is one of your favorite quotes?
There is no terror in the bang, only in the anticipation of it.- Alfred Hitchcock. I try to write my diehard suspense stories like The Visitor with this quote in mind.
If you could be a character from one of your books, who would it be and why?
I’d love to have KT Morgan’s bravery. She doesn’t let anything stop her, yet she has brains enough to know to call the police before she walks into a desperate situation.
Your four fantasy guests for a dinner party…living or dead.
Jesus Christ, God, Madalyn Murray O’Hair who was the person who brought Atheism to light in this country and was later murdered along with her son and granddaughter by a coworker, and William Joseph Simmons who was the head of the KKK back in the early 1920’s. Imagine the conversation at this table. How would Madalyn feel about sitting next to Jesus Christ, the person she claimed didn’t exist, and how would William explain to God how he hated a color that God chose for someone’s skin. Definitely be an interesting evening.
