I write crime suspense thrillers that explore race, oppression family secrets and relationships. And yes, there is always a little wink and a raised eyebrow when I say that because good suspense engages, perches you on the edge of your seat and spins a tale that makes you hold your breath and just when you think you can release it…boom…the next twist. I can’t stop smiling about the stories I tell.
