By Sandra Woffington

Music either soothes or unleashes the savage beast. This heart-pounding suspense begins at the Wine Valley amphitheater where a black metal band, “The Ghouls,” performs on Halloween night. Detective Max King, Dr. Joy Burton, and much of the local police force work security. Max and Joy expect a crowd of ghosts, ghouls, and Gothic goblins. But no one expects the horrific finale of an on-stage murder. While solving the case, Max takes the next step in uncovering his and Joy’s mysterious past—no record exists of their early years before two lawmen adopted them and split them apart. Max runs the DNA of his adoptive father, David King. For some, the truth provides closure. For others, the truth opens an abyss. Step into the vineyards and revel in the wicked world of Wine Valley. Read Gamay Noir and Ghouls today.

Hi, readers! I love to create stories with pithy dialogue, gritty action, mind-blowing plots and unique characters: flawed, passionate, and sometimes disturbed. I'm a USA Today and Amazon #1 Bestselling author. I completed the Humanities Honors Program at U.C. Irvine and earned my MFA in Creative Writing and MA in English from Chapman University. I've spent 15+ years teaching multiple subjects to middle school students. I love to teach as much as I love to write. My students inspire me! Wine Valley Mystery series is for adults—Noir Crime/Traditional Detective. The boxed set hit #1 Best Seller on Amazon upon release. The prequels of light and cheery Detective Max King, dark and disturbed Dr. Joy Burton, and tough-guy, Officer Reed Steele are FREE. https://dl.bookfunnel.com/91qn64o3vc My debut novel, Unveiling, a stand-alone, takes place in the colorful deserts of Saudi Arabia as well as America. It won Honorable Mention from the Writer's Digest SP book awards. Evil Speaks, first book in the Warriors and Watchers Saga Series, a middle grade fantasy, was Finalist (4th place) in the Reader's Favorite 5-star awards (that's out of all of the 5-star books in that category for the year).
