Who reads these books? WELL lemme tell ya! 

Readers who like shows such as CSI, 'Any Crime Show' out there, flawed characters. What about books? Anyone who likes romantic suspense, like Christy Barritt. What about that standalone, "Rules of Engagement?" Those who like global thrillers, conspiracies, with a touch of romance. Like Hazmat, Patient Zero, and military novels.
There ya go. 

 Find all three Whiskey River Mysteries here. "Romance Under Wraps," "Silk & Slippers," and "Shanghai Road."

 

   A native to rural Southern Oregon, Claire O’Sullivan has worked both as a nurse, then family nurse practitioner. She also trained with volunteer forensics locally, which she’s applied to her debut novel, romantic suspense, “Romance Under Wraps,” and to "Silk & Slippers," "Shanghai Road," and to her medical thriller, “Rules of Engagement.” She prefers to write forensics and police procedurals. What about you?

   

Her books are more grit than gush. She’s always wanted to write a sweet romance, but dead bodies somehow always show up. She has no idea how this happens. Or, as in “Rules of Engagement,” the world is in danger from some type of conspirators.  

 

 She can usually be found reading a book (only 240 left on her Kindle), likely a romantic suspense, military thriller, medical, police procedural, as well as a political thriller. Despite the grit, her works are inspirational. 

   Now that Mrs. O’Sullivan writes full-time, she and her husband will always call Oregon “home,” because they are simply too old to move. But on the upside, they can visit family, friends, and the beach or mountains.

I love ProWritingAid. This wee program (okay, not small. It's mighty) helps me & a zillion writers with word choices, weak verbs, overuse of adverbs. Gives the writer the ability to choose different words. Diction, grammar, etc., are addressed. Take a look!

Writer's blood. Because that's what we do. We weep, gnash our teeth, then bleed all over the paper. And we do this for our readers. Want to be a writer? Just starting out? Readers who feel our pain? This is for you.

Shanghai Road, a Whiskey River Mystery, Book 3

Shanghaiing is history. Now, transportation is the key.

 

Allie Espinoza, a private investigator with questionable methods, is eager to make a solid reputation in Whiskey River.

 

On her first job, on a less-than-legal search for evidence for fraud, she uncovers more than she bargained for.Now she’s on the run—until she’s apprehended by Deputy Ben Johnson, one of Whiskey River Police Department’s finest. At the police station, Allie’s true identity is uncovered.

 

Desperate for extra staff, the PD hires her to help investigate a now complicated case, and it’s not all champagne.

 

As she and the PD unravel the secrets of spidery intrigue, time runs short while lives hang in the balance. Allie Espinoza must dodge those finer points of the law, a cranky homicide detective, and uncover the evil. While Allie and Ben confront their own demons, one of them may become the next victim. And Whiskey River is where love, danger, and redemption collide.
