When Olivia becomes involved with the dark underbelly of island life, readers find themselves caught up in her fear and desperation as she's enmeshed in potentially deadly situations." --R. C. Goodwin, Author of Model Child National award-winning author Penny Goetjen writes murder mysteries where the milieus play as prominent a role as the engaging characters. A self-proclaimed eccentric known for writing late into the night, transfixed by the allure of flickering candlelight, Ms. Goetjen embraces the writing process, unaware what will confront her at the next turn. She rides the journey with her characters, often as surprised as her readers to see how the story unfolds. Fascinated with the paranormal, she usually weaves a subtle, unexpected twist into her novels. When her husband is asked how he feels about his wife writing murder mysteries, he answers with a wink, "I sleep with one eye open."
