A Literary Series LIVE STREAM Event
featuring
Susan Hanafee, Local Author

Susan Hanafee will speak in the library loggia on March 31, 2022, at 4 PM. She will talk about writing and specifically about her mystery novels. 

Susan’s novel Leslie’s Voice, re-released in 2020, introduces readers to her main character, Leslie. Leslie is trying to adapt to her new CEO, Brad Stewart, who plans to take over the neighboring electric utility and make himself the state’s energy kingpin. She deals with the twists and turns of corporate intrigue while struggling to handle the men in her life. Colorful characters and a twisty plot form the backdrop for the introduction of savvy and independent Leslie and her reporter friend, Wes Avery. 

Scavenger Tides, published in 2020, takes place shortly after Leslie Elliott quits her public relations job in the Midwest and moves to southwest Florida. Her dream of leaving the corporate world to become a mystery writer threatens to become a nightmare as buzzards lead her to a headless dog carcass, and a human body rolls in with the summer storms. Leslie’s search for answers and her run-ins with the local sheriff take her on a journey that involves a fisherman with too many secrets, a local couple struggling to survive in a millionaire’s playground, and criminals who will stop at nothing to protect their lucrative activities.

Susan’s newest book, The End of His Journey – a sequel to Scavenger Tides – Was released early this year. In this story, the idyllic island where Leslie Elliott lives in southwest Florida is shaken by the return of drug dealer Jamie Thompson. He escapes the law and vows revenge on Leslie for exposing his thriving cocaine business. His presence leads to two deaths, including that of her friend. As Leslie sets out to discover what happened, Leslie joins forces with her reporter friend Wes Avery, who is delving into a decades-old island shooting.
