Author event and giveaway: Susan Boyer

I was lucky enough to attend the launch party for Agatha Award winning author Susan Boyer‘s latest book, Lowcountry Boneyard.  It’s the third book in her Liz Talbot series – mysteries set in the lowcountry with the lightest touch of the supernatural.  I’ve known Susan for quite some time now because she’s a local author for me.  She attends many of the same author events I do and supports our local indie bookstore, Fiction Addiction.  That alone is enough to make me like her but I have to tell you Susan is a kind, generous, and uplifting person.  Her launch party was packed and featured delicious food and lots of great conversation.

I got Susan to autograph a copy of Lowcountry Boneyard for one lucky reader and she threw in a Stella Maris (the fictional setting of her books) t-shirt to sweeten the deal.

About Lowcountry Boneyard:

When a father hires PI Liz Talbot to find his heiress daughter, Liz suspects the most difficult part will be convincing the overbearing patriarch she left town. That’s what the Charleston Police Department believes. But behind the garden walls South of Broad, family secrets pop up like weeds in the azaleas. The neighbors recollect violent arguments between Kent and her parents. Eccentric twin uncles and a gaggle of cousins covet the family fortune. And the lingering spirit of a Civil-War-era debutante may know something if Colleen, Liz’s dead best friend, can get her to talk. Liz juggles her case, the partner she’s in love with, and the family she adores. But the closer she gets to what has become of Kent, the closer Liz dances to her own grave.
