    Libby,
    I just saw your interview on New Mystery Reader. As the father of a 17-year-old daughter, part of me wants to read EASY INNOCENCE right away, and part of me says I won't sleep if I do.

    I love that you shifted protagonists because you thought it would be too hard to keep finding credible murder situations for Ellie; I wish more crime fiction writers took that into consideration. I've don e over sixty reviews for NMR, and I can't remember the nuber of books where I thought, ten pages in, "Nope. That wouldn't happen." Of course, that's probably why I can't remember the books.

    Looking forward to saying hello again at Bouchercon. Best wishes for the book.
