Trace Conger Hi Lynda. Thanks for the question. As for the inspiration, I've always been interested in why serial killers wrote to the media or the police (many did, going all the way back to Jack the Ripper). It seems as if they are just giving the police more evidence to catch them. While sending these types of letters isn't unique to killers, I always wondered if anyone had sent letters to the police/media BEFORE they started their spree. This was the impetus for FIVE WILL DIE. As for a series (FOUR WILL, etc.) I can't rule it out. I have a few projects already lined up, so those will take priority, but it's an interesting idea to write it as a series.
