Rachelle: Annamaria Bazzi and I have new releases and we're proud to share them with you.
Annamaria: That's right, Rachelle, it’s always exciting when an author publishes a new book.
Rachelle: Absolutely. Thanks for hosting Hidden Under Her Heart on your blog last week. Tell us about your story, A Simple Matter of Justice.
Annamaria: My first publication is a paranormal short story
about finding justice after a brutal murder. When writing a novel the author
has plenty of time to develop his characters, I had very little time to bring
Samantha to full bloom and take the story to an ending that would complete the
character’s life. It was a challenge I took on with enthusiasm, and rejoiced
when I fulfilled my task.
Rachelle: Wait, who's Samantha? I don't see anyone else in this room.
~Annamaria ducks as the spirit hawk flies overhead~
Samantha: Hey, Annamaria, what are you babbling
about now?
Annamria: Come
on, Sam, droppings on my sweater. Have you come to drive me crazy? Can’t you see
I’m a guest at Rachelle’s Window?
Samantha: My, my, aren’t we testy?
Annamaria: Are you still upset that I turned you
into a spirit hawk?
Samantha: No, my dear creator, any one that reads
the story will understand I’m actually quite grateful, that is, if they don’t
consider the beginning.
Annamaria: Yes, you are still upset.
Samantha: Rachelle, wouldn’t you be upset if someone
turned you into a hawk?
Rachelle: Actually I've always wanted to fly. Michal had a dream that she and Ittai were hawks flying toward the sun.
~Samantha screeches and flaps around the chandelier~
Annamaria: Before any more damage is done, I want to
thank you for having me on your blog. Come on, Sam, it’s time for us to go.
Book Description:
Brutally murdered, Samantha discovers her life
doesn’t end with her death. While in spirit form, she speaks with a wolf, which
offers her a chance to bring her killer to trial…but there are strings
attached. Even so, she accepts his proposal, and together they hunt the city.
However, when the man responsible can’t be located, she worries the wolf’s
proposal might be more than a simple matter of justice.
