Dear Librarian, I'm so glad to be back here at AuthorBuzz to tell you about my September book, DEADLY LITTLE SECRETS. Have you ever seen an article in the newspaper, or researched something for a patron that made you say, "Hmmmmmmm...."? Well, that's what started DEADLY LITTLE SECRETS. There was an article in the Washington Post about a painting found, years after it's original theft, in the home of someone the police never suspected. Now, being a suspense writer, I had to scramble that up with murder, romance, adventure and intrigue, but that's the origin of the story! After a mission abroad goes horribly, murderously wrong, CIA Agent Ana Burton is reassigned to cold cases. One file, an ice-cold, nine-year-old art fraud and murder case, seems interesting so Ana dives in. One thread leads her to tangle with Gates Bromley, head of security for a billionaire art collector. Right after their meeting, Ana is nearly killed by a sniper, and there's an attempted break in at the billionaire's estate! Someone is determined to keep the case dead and buried, and don't mind dropping Ana and Gates in the grave with it. Romantic Times gives DEADLY LITTLE SECRETS a Top Pick, 4.5 stars and calls it: "...one of the year's best romantic suspense books!" and NYTimes Bestselling author Carla Neggers, calls it: "...Fast paced, riveting!" For years, libraries loaned everything from books and records to art. My father was a director of libraries, and I remember him questioning whether it worked. Did your library ever loan art? What would you do if you found out that one of the paintings in your library's collection was real, a valuable piece, rather than a reproduction? I hope you'll drop by my website, www.JeanneAdams.com and tell me, and/or send me an email at Jeanne@JeanneAdams.com for a chance to win one of FIVE copies of DEADLY LITTLE SECRETS that I'm giving away, exclusively to AuthorBuzz Librarians. I'll choose the winners at the end of September, and post them on my website too! Jeanne Adams
