Simone St. James on female serial killers, ghost stories, and her latest chiller THE BOOK OF COLD CASES

This week, Abby speaks with Simone St. James, the New York times bestselling author of The Sun Down Motel, The Broken Girls, and The Haunting of Maddy Clare. Abby and Simone talk about amateur sleuths solving crimes, the supernatural and how it appears in Simone's writing, and the real-world female serial killers who influenced the way Simone chose to write the villain of her latest chilling novel, THE BOOK OF COLD CASES--a story about a true crime blogger who gets more than she bargained for when she sets out to interview a woman acquitted of two cold case slayings.
