About Me:
I’m Gemma Halliday and I write the High Heels Mysteries about L.A. shoe designer turned amateur sleuth, Maddie Springer and her LAPD Detective love interest, Jack Ramirez. My first book, SPYING IN HIGH HEELS, came out in 2006 and I've been completely thrilled with the attention it's gotten. This year it won a National Reader's Choice award, as well as being nominated for two RITA awards. And, as if that weren't enough to make a girl happy, it's also currently in development with the USA Network for a TV series. Fun stuff!
My second book, KILLER IN HIGH HEELS, came out in February 2007, and the third in the series, UNDERCOVER IN HIGH HEELS, will hit shelves September 2007.

UNDERCOVER IN HIGH HEELS
book #3 of the High Heels Mysteries

Secret affairs, hunky gardeners, and housewives desperate enough to bare it all… welcome to Magnolia Lane, TV's hottest new prime time show. A place where L.A. shoe designer Maddie Springer should be in fashion heaven. That is until the body of a rising young starlet is found dead on the show's set. Now it's up to Maddie to sift through a leading lady with a secret, an actor on the verge of a nervous breakdown, a sexy cyber scandal, and one tabloid reporter who'll stop at nothing to get the story of the century. Not to mention Maddie's hot-cold relationship with the case's familiar lead detective, Jack Ramirez.
In a world where secrets, lies, and deception can earn you an Oscar, Maddie plays the role of a lifetime to catch Hollywood's hottest killer. But if she doesn't watch her step, Maddie's fifteen minutes of fame just may be her last.

I look forward to reading the "High Heels" books you written. Post a blog for us when USA Network gets their act together and produces your storys. It would be fun to watch a fellow Crimespacer's work make it to cable. Best of luck. CJ

Congratulation on the success of you books. I’ll keep an eye out for them at the book store. They all have a great premise. So when does USA network plan on releasing SPYING IN HIGH HEELS? I look forward to watching it.

Early Endorsements for “A Circle of Souls”

Linda Fairstein, NYT Bestselling Author: "A fascinating debut - this novel takes the reader to the darkest places in the human soul, from a writer with the authenticity to lead us there. A stunning thriller and an important read."

Judge Judy Sheindlin, star of the Judge Judy Show: "The seminal work of this fine author kept me glued to my chair until the adventure was over and the mystery solved. A great read!"

Book Synopsis:

The sleepy town of Newbury, Connecticut, is shocked when a little girl is found brutally murdered. The town s top detective, perplexed by a complete lack of leads, calls in FBI agent Leia Bines, an expert in cases involving children.

Meanwhile, Dr. Peter Gram, a psychiatrist at Newbury s hospital, searches desperately for the cause of seven-year-old Naya Hastings devastating nightmares. Afraid that she might hurt herself in the midst of a torturous episode, Naya s parents have turned to the bright young doctor as their only hope.

The situations confronting Leia and Peter converge when Naya begins drawing chilling images of murder after being bombarded by the disturbing images in her dreams. Amazingly, her sketches are the only clues to the crime that has panicked Newbury residents. Against her better judgment, Leia explores the clues in Naya s crude drawings, only to set off an alarming chain of events.
In this stunning psychological thriller, innocence gives way to evil, and trust lies forgotten in a web of deceit, fear, and murder.

Gemma,
Saw an Article in the RWA that mentioned you.
I sent off a proposal to the agent I met at the GRW convention. My first.
Hope your well

Joe
