Levine Greenberg Rostan

When I first started researching IN CONCERT, I stumbled on a poem by Johnny Cash. The last line: “Let’s put it to music, you and me” became one of the epigraphs for the book and my North Star. I loved it so much that I framed it and hung it on the wall so I’d see it every morning before I wrote. This is a love story set to music. (Iconic music! Your favorite music! Well, my favorite music, anyway, from the 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s). I’ve been working on it for five years and there were times I didn’t know if I could actually pull it off (which I’m starting to accept is just part of the writing process), but it’s in Publisher’s Lunch today so it must be real. I’m so grateful my editor @kdonovan8 and agent @steph_rostan believed in it when it was just a crumb of an idea. I can’t wait to tell you more and share the cover, but for now, the countdown to publication begins (as well as all of my obnoxious self-promotion. Buckle up, guys! I'm going to be talking about this one a lot). #newbook #inconcert #letsgo @berkleypub @lgrlit

The Queen of Midwestern Noir👸🏻is BACK, and taking you on a gruesome trip down memory lane to the best era... the 90s. Massive shoutout to the one and only @people for the splashy cover reveal as I venture forth into standalone territory, and of course, to @steph_rostan and @minotaur_books for all the blood, sweat, and tears that went into what I can confidently say is my most imaginative (highest body count BY FAR) book yet! • Milwaukee, 1997—In the eighties, the Cream City Killer turned Walker’s Point into his hunting ground, giving it a new name: Scream City. Now, suspended cop Rex Hale is serving eviction notices for a developer bent on gentrification—until the next tenant turns up murdered. The crime points to a copycat, and Rex becomes a suspect along with Alice Foster, the Cream City Killer’s granddaughter and owner of a haunted bookstore 👻 As the bodies pile up, the two must uncover what the original investigation missed—before Scream City lives up to its name again. And this time, no one gets out alive. • SCREAM CITY is out 01.26.27 and available for preorder wherever books are sold 😱🏙️ {Link in b!0} P.S. This is the song that inspired the whole book 🖤 #hannahmorrissey #screamcity #readcrimefiction #paranormalthriller #milwaukee
