The Query

by Chila Woychik

A small press publisher. Pan Am Flight 103. A strange manuscript query. How does it all fit together?Maddie Hill is passionate about her book press, but when last day submissions happen, she's also relieved. That is, until she receives several confusing emails, phony names, and veiled threats. Not to mention, she misses Sasha, though she’d never admit it. And is her mentor really who he says he is? Everything eventually comes to light after several cat and mouse hours of who-did-what-and-why.

Oh boy, I just finished "The Query". What a lovely and intriguing read! Maddie Hill had me hooked from the start and I loved how the author wove multiple parts of Maddie and her life together with such seamless transition. I am a 'fraidy cat at heart and don't often read mysteries because I can't take the suspense. However, Maddie Hill made me feel safe to explore with. I am looking forward to more adventures with her! My sincere hope is that Chila Woychik has more Maddie Hill adventures to share with us!
