Marcia Talley is the Agatha and Anthony award-winning author of six Hannah Ives mysteries: SING IT TO HER BONES, UNBREATHED MEMORIES, OCCASION OF REVENGE, IN DEATH'S SHADOW, THIS ENEMY TOWN and THROUGH THE DARKNESS. She is editor/author of NAKED CAME THE PHOENIX, a star-studded, tongue-in-cheek collaborative serial novel about murder in a fashionable health spa. A second collaboration, I’D KILL FOR THAT, is set in an upscale gated community. Marcia’s short stories appear in numerous collections, including “With Love, Marjorie Ann” and “Safety First”, both Agatha Award nominees, and “Too Many Cooks,” winner of both the Agatha and Anthony awards for Best Short Story. A new story, “Driven to Distraction” won the Agatha, has been nominated for an Anthony, and has been selected for reprint in two major collections.
