Please join Low Country SinC member Tina Whittle as she interrogates interviews thriller author J. J. Hensley about Record Scratch, the second novel in his Trevor Galloway series.
Record Scratch is a mystery novel divided into 12 tracks on a vinyl album, which brings back his former Pittsburgh narcotics detective, Trevor Galloway, to face a case he doesn’t want. It’s certainly a case he doesn’t need. The client—the sister of a murdered musician—seems a bit off. She expects Galloway to not only solve her brother’s homicide, but recover a vinyl record she believes could ruin his reputation.
Hensley, the author of Measure Twice, Resolve, Bolt Action Remedy, and short story contributor to The Night of the Flood, is a former police officer and former Special Agent with the U.S. Secret Service who draws upon his experiences in law enforcement to write stories full of suspense and insight. Mr. Hensley’s novel Resolve was named one of the BEST BOOKS OF 2013 by Suspense Magazine and was named a finalist for Best First Novel by the International Thriller Writers organization.
We will be scratching out some awesome 80s tunes and also welcoming mystery author Tina Whittle, who will put Hensley in the interrogation room and shine a klieg light on his creative process.
