It's Tuesday! I love it when I get to post an episode on the day a book releases! A Killing Rain, Faye Snowden's second book in her Noir Mystery Killing series, releases today! I had the honor of receiving an advanced copy to read. Faye and I got into all the details that gave this book texture and made it come alive. We also talked about the importance of Black female detective characters and I learned some new things like there are trauma cleaners. What??
