About the author
M.A. Senft
10 books9 followersBorn in Beech Grove, Indiana, MA was one of five siblings. As the oldest of two daughter's she was expected to help her mother with daily household chores that began each day at eight o’clock and ended mid-afternoon. Dinner preparations started at four. Two of her earliest memories are of rolling pie dough out at the kitchen table; the other is standing on a chair at the stove to stir pots while her mother fixed dinner.
When her mother passed away at age forty-eight, MA stepped in to help raise her younger sister who was eleven at the time. Her nine-year younger brother also moved in.
At eighteen MA married and continued to raise her younger sister alongside her own growing family. She raised her own two sons and a daughter while living in different parts of the country, but MA eventually settled in the Indianapolis area with her school-age children.
In 1993 she started her own business while also continuing her side-job modeling assignments. Both kept her busy travelling across the country to trade shows and events.
In 1999, MA met her soul mate and current husband. They married at a scenic location overlooking Moraine Lake in Banff National Park, Canada. For over twenty years, MA has enjoyed travelling the U.S. and Europe with him. Montana is where she and her husband plan to partially retire to be inspired by wildlife and snowcapped mountains.
Having been a state-ranked tennis player, MA ceremoniously supports the Indiana Pacers and Indianapolis Colts. However, she encouraged her children to choose football teams from different parts of the country where she and her family had lived, so she also backs her kids' teams (Raiders, Packers and Cowboys).
Today, MA enjoys spending quiet time with her husband on their acreage south of Indianapolis, playing pool and fishing. In a gazebo, that overlooks a lake on their property, MA dreams up new adventures and storylines.
MA’s favorite past time, however, is watching their 4 children, 6 grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren grow. Her oldest grandson is credited with motivating her to put pen to paper late in life.

Some stories refuse to stay buried…
The Unseen Player is a gripping blend of mystery, suspense, and emotional depth that kept me turning pages late into the night. Clint Reeves is a compelling protagonist—his journey from an abandoned child to a man confronting the shadows of his past is both haunting and inspiring. What I enjoyed most was the seamless fusion of murder mystery and supernatural intrigue. The ghostly guidance doesn’t feel gimmicky; instead, it adds a layer of emotional gravity to the decades-old crime Clint seeks to solve. The pacing steadily builds as secrets unfold, and the connection between the living and the departed is handled with surprising sensitivity.
This story isn’t just about solving a mystery—it’s about identity, justice, and the courage to confront painful truths. If you enjoy thrillers with heart, a touch of the paranormal, and a long-buried secret waiting to be uncovered, this one is worth the read.

I (mostly) enjoyed the story but I did not enjoy the book. The grammar was terrible, continuity was spotty at best and the dialog was patently ridiculous. Also quite repetitive (yes, I get it already) and really needed a decent editor.
