"Deanie Mills is Mary Higgins Clark with an *edge.* Her writing is swift, suspenseful, involving, and unpredictable." — Dean Koontz
"Deanie Mills brings suspense and terror directly into the heart of every parent. If this chiller doesn’t keep you on the edge of your chair, not much will!" — John Saul
"Mills writes the kind of books that Alfred Hitchcock loved to film. She’s very, very good." — Mystery Scene
"DARK ROOM is a spine-tingling tale of suspense, full of startling twists and surprising developments." - Judith Kelman
From Deanie:
I have led an unexpected life. Grew up in the city, but married a cowboy and moved to a remote west Texas ranch. Raised my two amazing children in the country with horses and dogs and cats and wild animals, but at the same time, traveled the country researching crime novels with law enforcement officers of all types and speaking to writers about our craft. An independent and unabashed feminist who opposed the Iraq war, I still stayed married for more than 30 years to the same wonderful man and sent my son to fight with the Marines in Iraq twice. Both my kids are strong and independent too, and remain my biggest fans; they are the accomplishment of which I am most proud, even after publishing eleven books. My daughter pursued her craft, acting, in London, New York, and now, L.A. My son is out of the Marines and would like to see the war end sooner than later so his buddies can come home. And I’m still married to the same sexy cowboy.

Quite a gripping multi-layered thriller from this US author. When her husband, a cop, is accused of murder, the main character Gypsy does not believe that he is guilty - but then he disappears. Gypsy also has issues from her own past to deal with. And on top of this there are links to the Kennedy assassination.
