A SHOCKING REVELATION RESULTS IN TRAGEDY KATHLEEN M. RODGERS chats with hosts Jim and Bobbi Jean Bell 

We eagerly awaited this return visit of award-winning author KATHLEEN M. RODGERS! We chatted about her soon to-be-released, and much anticipated new work, THE LLANO COUNTY MERMAID CLUB. It tells a story of childhood friendships, an adult affair, and the lost innocence of a group of young girls longing for the sea. Scandal, tragedy, and later, darker discoveries make for an enthralling read. It's all of that...and so much more!!! Included in the interview are two very short music segments. Each relates to the story.  "Sands Motel" written and performed by Kerry Grombacher.  "The Typewriter" performed by Leroy Anderson About The Book “Kathleen M. Rodgers has outdone herself with her newest, most literary novel, The Llano County Mermaid Club. She brings all the mysticism of New Mexico to bear in her story about heartbreak and healing, about how novels can give us the hope to carry on and the empathy to forgive the ones we love most.” —Kathryn Brown Ramsperger, author of A Thousand Flying Things
