“The ornaments of your house will be the guests who frequent it.” - Author Unknown
Through Virtual Book Tours, I have met many talented authors. Today I am pleased to introduce one of these authors to you, Darcia Helle.
Darcía says she writes because, "My head gets cluttered with characters that demand their story be written."
Darcía is a fiction author of mystery/suspense. She currently has four books, published Enemies and Playmates, Hit List, No Justice and Beyond Salvation, and is at work on number five. Darcía also writes a monthly nonfiction, crime-related newsletter called Guilty As Charged. The newsletter covers a wide range of topics, from the history of burning at the stake to modern-day serial killers.
Words are Darcía's addiction. She will read just about anything: novels, biographies, history, sociology, ingredient labels...
Darcía grew up in Massachusetts but has lived in the Tampa Bay area of Florida since 2002. She is married and has two sons. An animal lover, Darcía has two very spoiled dogs and two equally spoiled cats.
Darcía's website is her own creation. There you will find excerpts from her books, newsletters, monthly contests, blog, and a few pages of things to make you smile.
Her book, No Justice, addresses the question, “How far would you go to right a wrong?”
For Michael Sykora, killing started as blind rage. Then it became something he's good at. To most of those who know him, Michael is a software designer, a smart but average guy with a workaholic nature. To a chosen few, Michael is a part-time hit man whose specialty is eliminating hard-core criminals.
Michael has managed to keep his two personas separate. Until now. When Nicki, a close friend, gets into trouble, Michael steps in to help. Having lost his fiancé to a brutal crime, Michael will do whatever necessary to keep from losing another woman in his life.
At one time or another, don't we all wish we could do the things our Justice system cannot or will not? What would it take to push you over the edge?
Here are a couple of excerpts from the reviews for No Justice on Amazon:
The characters in this book are believable, the scenes are easy to visualize, and the quest for justice is one that has tempted all of us who have been wronged. I highly recommend this book to everyone who has been a fan of John D. McDonald, Robert Crais, Robert B. Parker, or Evan Hunter. I am waiting patiently for Darcia Helle's sequel to No Justice. – Joe Prentis
I love it when a book begins with an intriguing first line - one that immediately captures my attention and draws me in through the need to know more. No Justice does that. I instantly wanted to sit for the rest of the day just reading it. – Martha Jette
To find out more about Darcia or to buy her books, visit her web page , blog, Amazon author page or Books On Amazon.
Feel free to leave your comments or questions for Darcia.
If you have a few extra minutes drop by Heidi M. Thomas, where I’m talking abo
ut writing in another genre and I’m also looking for reference book recommendations.
I hope you’ll have an opportunity to stop by and visit some of the other interesting and talented VBT authors, also. You’ll find the complete list at VB, Writers on the Move. If you leave a comment on this month’s mystery site, you’ll have the opportunity to win a prize.
Thanks for stopping by.
