In this week’s episode of The Bookshop at the End of the Internet, author Steven C. Harms discusses his new thriller series. He has published two books in the series so far, Give Place to Wrath and The Counsel of the Cunning. In these fast-paced thrillers, Steven’s main character is Roger Viceroy, a veteran police detective in Milwaukee, Wisconsin who is recently divorced, wrestling with his own faith, and extremely good at his job of solving murders. Steven was inspired to create Roger Viceroy and write this series because he is such a big fan of the genre. His goal with each book is to take a morality message and embed it within a secular mystery, and he is currently working on book number three. In this episode, I’ll chat with Steven about his writing journey, his plans for this series and how to keep it exciting, and why he chose Milwaukee, WI as the setting for these stories.

In this week’s episode of The Bookshop at the End of the Internet, author Susan Cole discusses her new memoir, Holding Fast. It is Susan’s story of leaving everything behind to follow her husband’s lifelong dream of sailing away. Susan has lived on or around sailboats for most of her life. But when she married John in her early twenties and agreed to live with him on a sailboat, she had never sailed before. After living on several different boats, Susan and John eventually embarked on a three-year voyage through the Caribbean with their seven-year-old daughter and their dog, Elmo. In Holding Fast, Susan recounts the joys of offshore sailing, as well as its many trials and tribulations, including the experience of riding out a hurricane. It was an adventure that profoundly changed their lives forever. In this episode, I’ll chat with Susan about her writing journey, her advice for anyone thinking of sailing away, and how the title of her book, Holding Fast, relates to her husband’s favorite sailor’s knot.
