Ok Let find out about THE DELPHI BLOODLINE
and Donna Del Oro.
First how about you tell us here at Julies Book Review
about a little about yourself?
I'M A FORMER HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER WHOSE COUSIN
WAS A PRACTICING PSYCHIC. ESP/PSI PHENOMENA HAS
INTRIGUED ME MOST OF MY LIFE AND I'VE DONE AT
LEAST TWENTY YEARS OF RESEARCH INTO THIS PHENOMENA,
INCLUDING TAKING PART IN AN ESP WORKSHOP. MY IDEA FOR
THIS NOVEL CAME ABOUT AS A RESULT OF WHAT I LEARNED AT
THIS WORKSHOP.
What genres do you write?
WOMEN'S FICTION AND SMART, ROMANTIC THRILLERS.
Can you tell us a little about your newest book?
THIS IS A CONTEMPORARY STORY, SET IN RENO, LAKE
TAHOE AND NORTHERN CALIFORNIA, ABOUT AN ANCIENT
BLOODLINE OF PSYCHIC WOMEN, THEIR PRESENT-DAY
DESCENDANTS, THEIR MALE GUARDIANS AND THE RUTHLESS
TYCOON WHO WANTS TO ENSLAVE THEM FOR HIS GLOBAL
SPY NETWORK. AS PSYCHICS FROM ALL OVER THE U.S.
BEGIN DISAPPEARING, INCLUDING ATHENA'S MOTHER,
ATHENA AND HER SELF-APPOINTED GUARDIAN, A MYSTERIOUS
GREEK-AMERICAN BUSINESSMAN, RUN AND HIDE FROM THE
KIDNAPPERS. UNTIL THE FBI DECIDES TO USE ATHENA AS BAIT.
Did you have any other authors that have helped you
or have inspired your work?
A WHOLE SLEW OF THRILLER AND SPY/MYSTERY AUTHORS,
TOO NUMEROUS TO NAME.
Do you recall what got you into writing?
SINCE CHILDHOOD, I'VE LOVED READING AND WRITING STORIES.
I'M A BORN STORYTELLER.
Ok how about some fun stuff
Dogs, cats, or fish?
I HAVE THREE FERAL CATS WHICH I RESCUED FROM CERTAIN
DEATH. THEY'RE SLOWLY ACCEPTING HUMAN COMPANY.
Sci-fi, fantasy, or paranormal, Romance?
(writing and reading)
I LOVE TO READ ALL KINDS OF THRILLERS, LEGAL, MILITARY,
POLITICAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL, CRIME DRAMAS, SPY THRILLERS...
Favorite Book of all time? Why?
OTHER THAN KEN FOLLETT'S THE EYE OF THE NEEDLE, HIS WW II
SPY THRILLER, I LOVE ALL OF DANIEL SILVA'S SPY NOVELS. HIS
HERO AND HEROINE ARE FASCINATING, WELL-ROUNDED AND WELL-DRAWN
CHARACTERS.
Favorite Author of all time? Why?
TOO MANY TO MENTION BECAUSE I AM SUCH AN ECLECTIC READER.
