Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
In journalist Gaylin's sharp debut suspense novel, preschool teacher and off-off-Broadway box office staffer Samantha Leiffer is happy with her offbeat life in downtown Manhattan--"the kind of muted happy that you don't notice at the time." Then, sitting on an abandoned pier taking a break from a tough day, she witnesses a couple disposing of an ice chest in the Hudson's chilly waters. Sam realizes that the man has seen her watching--and when the chest turns out to hold the body of a mutilated child, she's drawn into a world of intrigue. Attacks on Sam as well as key friends force her to try to unravel clues to the murder. Her chief ally is policeman John Krull, whose quiet solidity leads her gradually toward love. Though the crime plot overshadows several of Gaylin's most appealing secondary situations late in the book, this is a consistently entertaining evocation of Manhattan's strange and artsy underside, narrated by a heroine with a beautifully judged blend of warmth and wit, independence and edge.

TRASHED -- out in paperback this summer!

1:21 PM PST, January 13, 2008
As I make final revisions on my upcoming book, HEARTLESS, I'm also thrilled to learn TRASHED will be out in paperback this August. It's on amazon already -- check it out! And while I'm not sure what the cover will look like,  I can tell you it will feature some very kind words from Lisa Gardner, Lee Child and Harlan Coben, all of whom read and enjoyed the book -- and as a result, made my whole day. week. month. life.

Inside, you'll see excerpts from great reviews the book got in places like the Chicago Sun-Times, the Cleveland Plain-Dealer, the San Francisco Chronicle, Publishers Weekly, Library Journal, the Tennesean and others. And if all that isn't enough (and it very well might not be..,) paperback TRASHED also features a teaser from HEARTLESS -- and it's a pretty scary teaser, if I do say so myself.

Plus, it's cheap. Double plus, you can fit it in your beach bag. 

All right... enough with the shameless self-promotion and back to the HEARTLESS task at hand.  Happy 2008 and stay warm!
Alison

On deadline....but dying to hear from you!

9:11 PM PDT, October 23, 2007
So I haven't written here in about a month because I'm in heavy writing mode -- my deadline is looming on my next book, another standalone called HEARTLESS. This is the problem with writing a book a year. You don't really get to sit back, relax, and say, "Would you look at that? I've got a book out." Ever.  What I do love, though, is hearing from readers. Writing without readers is like clapping with one hand or pitching without a catcher or.... something

Okay, so I'm saving the better metaphors for my book, but I will say that there are times when I've been blocked, depressed and all-around miserable, and I'll go to my website, find a nice, friendly email from someone who says they enjoyed my book -- and my mood will pick up instantly. Some people say they don't pay attention to compliments. I do. I love them. I thrive on them. 

Positive comments from readers ease my writers block, make me smile and, most importantly, make me feel like I'm writing these books for a reason. So keep those emails coming. I'm reading, loving and answering them all.
