Join Dwight Holing talking about THE BROKEN BLOOD and more with Pamela Fagan Hutchins on Crime & Wine! Dwight says, "I love to talk about writing, importance of character development, why I set the Nick Drake mysteries in eastern Oregon in the 1970s, weaving fact into fiction, and how I made the transition from nonfiction to fiction." And you're going to love hearing it--this was fun!!

About THE BROKEN BLOOD:

The eighth in the Nick Drake mystery series will be released in May. In "The Broken Blood," wildlife rangers Nick Drake and Loq take separate paths, but both lead to action, murder, and mystery.

When his sister goes on the run with a charismatic Indian rights activist wanted for murder, Loq risks everything to find her. He teams up with a beautiful police officer tracking a member of her own tribe who joined the fugitive too. Danger, desire, and treachery test the pair as they try to stay ahead of a ruthless federal agent, solve who’s responsible for leaving bodies along the trail, and corner their elusive quarry.

Meanwhile, Nick Drake embarks on a hazardous undertaking of his own when his adopted son continues to be haunted by his traumatic childhood in war-torn Vietnam and a loved one is stricken with terminal cancer. Father and son go in search of healing and meaning, but deadly forces turn their quest into a fight for survival.
