"A fast-paced, intelligent tale of intrigue that will keep readers
guessing until the refreshing end."
-- Publishers Weekly STARRED REVIEW "Impossible to put down.
Sparkling dialog, references both musical and literary, and an
offbeat cast of believable characters make the pages fly by."
--Library Journal STARRED REVIEW "Murder and music, discord and
harmony, guilt and innocence, domesticity and passion, smooth talk
and rough sex: In The Devil's Interval--Linda Lee Peterson's
virtuoso second novel--journalist-sleuth Maggie Fiori scores all
the notes. Maggie, like the book, is smart, stylish, and
surprisingly steamy!"
-- Jon Jefferson (Jefferson Bass), New York Times bestselling crime
writer Smart and sexy, with the schemes of high society on full
display, The Devil's Interval takes readers on a tour of Everyone's
Favorite City, San Francisco. As Maggie Fiori attempts to solve
this intricate mystery, which begins in San Quentin Prison, what
will happen to her marriage, which needs a heavy dose of healing?
Readers will be turning pages to discover the answers.
-- Naomi Hirahara, Edgar Award-winning author of the Mas Arai
mysteries "The Devil's Interval is an entertaining mystery, and
shines with crisp prose, layered characters, and a gripping
plot."
-- Jonnie Jacobs, bestselling author of the Kate Austen and Kali
O'Brien mystery series "An intelligent and gripping novel. Maggie
Fiori is a witty, feisty protagonist and Peterson deftly weaves a
compelling tale of how far a mother will go to save her child. The
Devil's Interval is a roller-coaster ride through the streets and
alleys of San Francisco that will evoke Robert Parker's Spenser
novels with a dash of Janet Evanovich. Get out the flashlight.
You'll be up late."
-- Robert Dugoni, New York Times bestselling author of The
Conviction "There are many things I like about this
series...Peterson has avoided the pitfalls of making her
protagonist either too cozy or too hard-bitten and has crafted in
Maggie a character who feels real."
--Deon Stonehouse, Sunriver Books
