Thank you so much for your warm welcome.<br />Rhys - your book sounds wonderful, I agree that writing gothic is a lot of fun!<br />Linda - I certainly hope that the gothic is coming back! I'd love to try my hand at an historical novel someday.<br />Deb - Happy birthday! I too loved reading gothic romance/suspense when younger - in fact you're inspiring me to find some more. And I feel very lucky to have such a fantastic cover.<br />Jungle Reds - the book is out June 5th, and Julia's quote is absolutely fantastic, isn't it! As for sandgropers, it's a little burrowing insect - unfortunately! However, the term became popular because when the first Europeans arrived in Western Australia in the nineteenth century, the whole place was a huge sandpit!<br />Lil - I agree, gothics are very powerful because they address our deepest fears. <br />And Anonymous - thank you - I really hope you enjoy it.Sara Fosterhttp://www.sarafoster.com.aunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-24669026034473943632012-05-19T17:05:42.112-04:002012-05-19T17:05:42.112-04:00Excellent trailer.

Doesn't it come out in early June? Red Julia Spencer-Fleming calls it... "a moody, modern Gothic for today's generation....keeps you guessing right up until the last atmospheric page and establishes Foster as a new master of the psychological suspense genre.” <br /><br />But what Reds would MOST like to know...is the origin of the term "Sandgropers" Can you enlighten us? <br /><br />Readers bear in mind that, thanks to Reds pinpoint timing and organizational skills, it is now approx. 3:48 AM in Perth, so we expect comments from Sara a BIT later, after her cup of tea ;)Jungle Red Writershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16646429819267618412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-10829056739490940022012-05-19T11:57:16.009-04:002012-05-19T11:57:16.009-04:00Hi Sara--Can't wait to read your book--and it ...Hi Sara--Can't wait to read your book--and it comes out on my birthday! I grew up reading Gothic romantic suspense. Loved Mary Stewart's books, and Elizabeth Peter's back in the day when she wrote those sorts of books.<br /><br />And I love the Yorkshire moors, and the plot premise--oh, and your cover! All in all, I think this book is meant for me...Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11519514786198185277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-38975038036257691262012-05-19T11:13:02.466-04:002012-05-19T11:13:02.466-04:00Welcome, Sara!

BENEATH THE SHADOWS sound absolutely fascinating. I'll have to order it.

I can't wait to read this book.<br />I love a good Gothic and in fact Gothic must be in the air right now as the latest book in my Molly Murphy series takes place at a brooding mansion with a face in the turret window. I just thought it would be fun to write that sort of book.Rhys Bowenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06663634889908752121noreply@blogger.com
