Show Notes
On this episode we talked with old friend Desmond Ryan. His Mary Margaret O'Shea mystery series has
finally been published.
Mary Margaret and The Case of The Lapsed Parishoner (Level Best Books 8.28.23) When Mary-Margaret
O'Shea, a woman of a certain age with mildly Machiavellian tendencies, discovers a homicide scene and
meets an unimpressive lead investigator, she realizes that she has no choice but to solve the crime herself.
With little help from Michael, her police-detective son, she enlists Arthur, her eccentric housekeeper, to help
her find the killer.
In Mary-Margaret and The Case of The Lapsed Parishioner, a series of assumptions and misguided steps
may lead her to the killer, or they may make her the next victim.
Desmond is working on two new series and has begun a writers event at a local pub near his home in
Toronto. We wish him all the best and look forward to talking with him soon.
We then gave a quick recap of the Fright Reads Book Convention we attended last weekend. The event has
grown over the years and we were thrilled and had a wonderful time. We were honored to hose three author
panels during the event. We met many new friends and were very pleased to meet the Jersey Ghouls. They
have a podcast which mainly covers horror movies with a feminist twist.. We are planning on having a
collaboration with them next year. We thank Harry Carpenter and his team for their expertise on planning and
executing such a great event. We can't wait for next year.
Due to the length of today's episode, we will defer trivia until next week.
