http://www.georgina-cross-author.com/ After graduating from Louisiana State University, I enjoyed a career in television news, marketing & communications and worked 9 years in business development/bid & proposal for an aerospace & defense contractor before joining the Huntsville/Madison County Chamber of Commerce as the Workforce Development Director. I also founded Susie’s Wish non-profit in 2015 which sends patients with life threatening illnesses to the beach, named in honor of our best friend and former TV news reporter Susie Edwards. Married to David, we spend our weekends filled with basketball tournaments, scary movies, and trying new restaurants with our combined family of four sons. I’m represented by my agent Rachel Beck with Liza Dawson Associates with my suspense appealing to readers of The Good Girl by Mary Kubica, Then She Was Gone by Lisa Jewell, The Mother-in-Law by Sally Hepworth, and The Marriage Lie by Kimberly Belle. I’m the author of NANNY NEEDED published with Bantam, Penguin Random House, and the bestselling author of THE STEPDAUGHTER, and THE MISSING WOMAN published by Bookouture, Hachette Publishing.

Join the chat as the very funny Cherie Priest visits Wine Women & Writing with Pamela Fagan Hutchins to discuss her new release, GRAVE RESERVATIONS, along with dogs, cats, and comfort TV. A psychic travel agent and a Seattle PD detective solve a murder in this quirky mystery in the vein of Lisa Lutz’s The Spellman Files and Charlaine Harris’s Aurora Teagarden series. About Cherie: I write novels. I mean, I do other things too – but the books are probably the reason you’re reading this. So here goes. To date, I’ve had 24 full-length projects published. My most recent books are The Toll, The Agony House, and The Family Plot. My best-known book is probably Boneshaker (2009) – which was nominated for a Nebula Award and a Hugo Award. Boneshaker also won the PNBA Award, as well as the Locus Award for Best Science Fiction Novel. On a more personal note – in 2006 I moved from Chattanooga, Tennessee, to Seattle, Washington. Then in 2012, I moved back to Tennessee. In 2017, I moved back to Seattle – where I live at present with my husband, two dogs, and a very large cat we call the House Yeti. It’s kind of a long story. I was born in Tampa, Florida, on the day Jimmy Hoffa disappeared. I’m inordinately fond of zombies, trashy goth music, and cheap red wine. I have a phobic aversion to unfinished ceramics, an allergy to yellow dye #7, and a morbid fear of sloths. For further stats, check my Wikipedia entry. It’s mostly correct, though often at least partially wrong – and routinely out of date. Wikipedia won’t let me fix anything, even my occupations, publications, or graduation years. Apparently I’m not qualified to address such matters of hearsay. GRAVE RESERVATIONS: Meet Leda Foley: devoted friend, struggling travel agent, and inconsistent psychic. When Leda, sole proprietor of Foley's Flights of Fancy, impulsively re-books Seattle PD detective Grady Merritt’s flight, her life changes in ways she couldn’t have predicted. After watching his original plane blow up from the safety of the airport, Grady realizes that Leda’s special abilities could help him with a cold case he just can’t crack. Despite her scattershot premonitions, she agrees for a secret reason: her fiancé’s murder remains unsolved. Leda’s psychic abilities couldn’t help the case several years before, but she’s been honing her skills and drawing a crowd at her favorite bar’s open-mic nights, where she performs Klairvoyant Karaoke—singing whatever song comes to mind when she holds people’s personal effects. Now joined by a rag-tag group of bar patrons and pals alike, Leda and Grady set out to catch a killer—and learn how the two cases that haunt them have more in common than they ever suspected.
