It is very rewarding to hear from a fan who likes one of my stories. This email about Impasse hit my mailbox yesterday. Feels great to be compared to some 
best selling authors in the genre. Thank you!

"I just finished your book, Impasse.  Best story I have read in a long time.  I work at a library--that's how I came across your book.  The cover grabbed my attention and I love suspense-thrillers-mysteries.  I read about 2 books a week, including best-selling authors.  You have topped James Patterson by a mile and rival Stuart Woods, James Grippando, and David Baldacci.  Congratulations on a great book from this old lady!"
