Virna DePaul: August 2010 Archives

The action in James Thane's debut thriller novel, No Place To Die, begins immediately when Phoenix attorney Beverly Thompson is snatched from her garage and her husband is brutally murdered.  When four others quickly fall victim to the same killer, homicide detective Sean Richardson is assigned the case.  Even as Sean hunts for the killer and his next victim, his opponent proves to be both clever and elusive.  Soon, Sean questions whether Beverly will survive, let alone see her husband's killer brought to justice.

"NO PLACE TO DIE is a two-in-one treat, a convincing police procedural bolted to a nail-biter suspense novel."  - Sam Reaves, author of MEAN TOWN BLUES



"NO PLACE TO DIE is an auspicious beginning to what I hope will become a series. Sean and Maggie make a great crime-solving team."   -Barbara D'Amato, author of DEATH OF A THOUSAND CUTS

Recently, I interviewed Mr. Thane.  Here's what he had to say about his writing journey, his story, and his upcoming release.
