The Rock & Roll Queen of Bedlam is now available in stores and online!

From the back cover...

A teacher for dysfunctional teenagers by day and a karaoke singer by night in a small Washington town, recently divorced Allegra Thome knows where to find trouble. After accidentally disrupting a drug bust, she meets Sloan, a tough, sexy DEA officer. This charismatic agent clears her of all charges, but Allegra’s rich boyfriend, Michael LeClaire, must step aside. Propelled by an attraction neither can ignore, Allegra and Sloan explore every facet of each other in the most ingenious ways.

Soon their lighthearted, passionate encounters take a backseat when Sara Stepaneck, one of Allegra’s talented students, is reported missing. Following the trail of cryptic messages and bizarre codes in Sara’s final school compositions, Allegra believes the girl’s disappearance indicates psychological manipulation and foul play. The disturbed teen’s complicated background of apathy and neglect makes finding the culprit a difficult endeavor. Allegra must face suspicious characters and false leads, putting her own life in danger. Time is running out in the frantic search for Sara—and the answers Allegra seeks may be more shocking than she could ever imagine.

Marilee Brothers, author and former teacher at Davis High School in Yakima, Washington, visited the Davis Library to talk about her newest novel, Moonstone. Ms. Brothers entertained students during three one-hour presentations and wowed members of the Davis English department, as well as fledgling student authors, with her off-beat sense of humor as she talked about how to get published.

Davis High School librarian Lynne Greene said the students were fascinated as Ms. Brothers introduced Allie Emerson,the fifteen-year-old main character of Moonstone, who struggles to keepher act together in the small town of Peacock Flats, Washington. Theywere particularly taken with Allie's dippy guardian angel and laughedout loud at the realistic dialogue.

"We purchased ten copies of Moonstone and all ten books are in constant circulation," said Ms. Greene. "My students are already bugging me about the next in the series."
