Korina Moss and Fleur BradleyShow NotesThe first thing we did on this episode is to announce that we have a new patron in Jan H. fromIllinois and we are thrilled. We also had a donation made to our tip jar on our website from JoanLong. We are very appreciative of both.Korina Moss is nominated for an Agatha Award for Best First Novel for her book “Cheddar OffDead.”Cheesemonger Willa Bauer is proving that sweet dreams are made of cheese. She’s openedher very own French-inspired cheese shop, Curds & Whey, in the heart of the Sonoma Valley.The small town of Yarrow Glen is Willa's fresh start, and she's determined to make it a success– starting with a visit from the local food critic. What Willa didn’t know is that this guy never givesa good review, and when he shows up nothing goes according to plan. She doesn’t think thenight can get any worse... until she finds the critic’s dead body, stabbed with one of her shop’scheese knives. Now a prime suspect, Willa has always believed life’s problems can be solvedwith cheese, but she’s never tried to apply it to murder...We then talked with Fleur Bradley who is nominated for An Agatha Award for Best Children orYoung Adult Novel for her book “Daybreak on Raven Island.”Tori, Marvin, and Noah would rather be anywhere else than on the seventh grade class field tripto Raven Island prison. Tori would rather be on the soccer field, but her bad grades havebenched her until further notice; Marvin would rather be at the first day of a film festival with hisbest friend, Kevin; and Noah isn't looking forward to having to make small talk with hisclassmates at this new school.But when the three of them stumble upon a dead body in the woods, miss the last ferry backhome, and then have to spend the night on Raven Island, they find that they need each othernow more than ever. They must work together to uncover a killer, outrun a motley ghost-huntingcrew, and expose the age-old secrets of the island all before daybreak.We thank both of these ladies and wish them good luck.TRIVIALast Week's question was:“High Tower Court” building had what influence on author Michael Connelly?a.
