Her award-winning debut, THE LOST POWER, launches with a bang this month.
Strap in for the story New York Times bestselling author Steve Berry calls “a good ole’ fashioned rip-roaring adventure.”

No spoilers, but what can you tell us about your book that we won’t find in the jacket copy or the PR material?
Maddy Marshall and her boyfriend, VanOps Officer Thorenson, have a blow-out fight over communication with her ex. I’m looking forward to hearing how audio-book narrator Tim Campbell reads that scene!
What authors or books have influenced your career as a writer, and why?
I love how James Rollins is able to keep it fresh with each adventure in his Sigma Force series. Gregg Hurwitz does an amazing job evoking emotion in a genre more known for its body count. Steve Berry seamlessly weaves history into his novels. Carlos Ruiz Zafón is a magician with atmosphere. They’re all an inspiration.
