Guest Post by Leanna Sain—Author of Hush

Please welcome Guest Author, Leanna Sain. I hope to read her new Novel soon.

When I began reaching out to other authors about the possibility of them hosting me on their blogs to help spread the word about my new suspense novel, Hush, I had no idea I’d get such an avalanche of positive responses. Alzheimer’s, it seems, has touched way more people than I realized. Some have termed it “the long good-bye.” It’s an apt description, but I call it a thief. That’s because it’s not content with merely killing its victims. No, it steals … everything. Not just their memories, it steals all their abilities. Anything that makes them the person they are, it slowly takes it all away; then it kills them. I hate this disease with every fiber of my being.

I thank God that He gave me the ability to write. Writing was my life-vest during the final months of my mother’s life, something that kept me afloat and able to function. Because I decided to make my main character’s mother suffer from this dreaded disease, too, we were able to journey the long, lonely road together. That helped me. A lot.

Another thing that helped was deciding to donate a portion of book sales to Alzheimer’s research. Since Alzheimer’s tends to be genetic and since both my mother and her mother died from it, I’m sure you understand why I’m a bit nervous. Each time I can’t remember something, I can’t help but worry about my future. Please help me by getting your copy of Hush. You’ll not only get a good book, you’ll be helping a good cause.

Hush – by Leanna Sain

Lacey Campbell dreams murders before they happen.

As head chef for a chic restaurant and primary caregiver to a mother with Alzheimer’s, she doesn’t have time for the nightmare and at first she tries to deny it. But the next day, she discovers it's a disturbing reality. When she dreams the second heinous murder she knows it’s time to tell the police.

Detective Ford Jamison is called back to the little coastal town to help with the case and soon notices an alarming trend: the killer is using the lullaby as a “blueprint” to target women who resemble Lacey. This doesn’t slow the killings and now Lacey is afraid to fall asleep at night because the next face she sees in her dream might be her own.

As a hurricane churns ever closer to the little coastal town, danger and suspicion spin out of control. Time is running out. Can they stop the killer before the last verse of the lullaby?
