Hey there! I know, it’s been a while! Sorry, I got a bit distracted running hither and yon launching LIFELINES.
But, one of my stops was in Pittsburgh where I had the chance to have some fun research for Book 2, WARNING SIGNS, spending an afternoon with a few of the Pittsburgh River Rescue guys!
Here are some pix, enjoy!

Larissa Ione took LIFELINES camping with her and wrote:
I finished Lifelines, and loved it! Now I’m DYING for the next one…Excellent book, lady – totally AMAZING debut! Congrats!
As promised, I’m sending proof that I read Lifelines while camping! It
annoyed the hell out of my husband, who kept saying I needed to do things like hike. Pfft. I was just way to engrossed in the book!
And a sighting from Toni McGee Causey in Baton Rouge, Louisiana…
Finally, one more from the Brazilian rainforest, courtesy of Leighton Gage:
Feel free to send me your pictures of any sightings of LIFELINES!
Thanks for reading,
CJ
