Cold River (28 page)
Authors: Carla Neggers
Dear Readers,
Thank you for reading COLD RIVER! I hope you enjoyed the story and are wondering what’s next for the Camerons, the Harpers, the Shays, their friends…
and
their enemies. Rose Cameron and her golden retriever, Ranger, a search-and-rescue dog, take center stage in COLD DAWN, my next Black Falls novel, due out in late 2010. As private and competent as her three brothers, Rose is coming off a tough year, and big challenges await her.
We’ll also get to see A.J., Elijah and Sean Cameron in COLD DAWN, as well as learn more about Navy SEAL Ryan “Grit” Taylor and Charlie Neal, the genius, incorrigible son of the vice president of the United States. Look for the return of Secret Service agent Jo Harper and the “sisters” of Three Sisters Café, too. Jo and Elijah Cameron, of course, played a central role in COLD PURSUIT, the first Black Falls novel, which introduces this fictional small town in my home state of Vermont.
Also in 2010, the paperback edition of my
New York Times
bestseller THE MIST will be out in June. The book features Lizzie Rush, a hotelier whose spy father taught her everything he knows, as she goes after a missing billionaire out for violent revenge…and takes on mysterious Will Davenport, who lives by his own personal code and answers to no one.
As I write this note, I’m working on THE WHISPER, the follow-up to THE MIST, and loving being back in this “world” of Boston detectives, FBI agents, Irish folklorists, eccentric hoteliers and spies. If you’re new to this series, the first two books, THE WIDOW and THE ANGEL, are both out in paperback now.
Finally, I’m thrilled to see ON FIRE returning to print
in February, with a gorgeous new cover. Set on the coast of Maine—one of my favorite places—the story pits oceanographer Riley St. Joe and FBI agent John Straker against a very clever and dangerous killer.
Thank you again, and I hope you enjoy escaping into these “worlds” I’ve created!
Happy reading,
Carla
