The Talent Cave Reviews would like to extend a warm welcome to author L.F. Falconer, and thank her for taking the time to tell us about her new thriller book.
What is the title of your book? Exit Strategy
What is your book about? Exit Strategy is the story of Jonas, a man suffering from multiple personality disorder, who chooses to run from the law when accused of a murder he believes he didn’t commit, a journey that takes him from Massachusetts to Newfoundland, to Greenland, and finally to the Shetland Islands. Under the torments of Gabe and Izzy, two young passengers he took on board his boat, Jonas begins to unravel and discovers some unsettling, buried truths about himself and his past. And he just wants out.
Why did you decide to write it? I was looking for a diversion from the medieval fantasy realm I’d been involved with for so many years. Exit Strategy started out as a far
different story when I first conceived the idea, but once the characters of Gabe
and Izzy came to life, the story took a turn to the left and blossomed.
How did you get your book published? I self-publish through Outskirts Press.
What types of readers will be interested in your book? This is definitely an adult novel, and will probably appeal to most anyone who enjoys digging into the shadier side of human nature. And while it can get pretty dark in some spots, there are enough moments of light humor to keep it from being too heavy.
What is special about your book? What differentiates it from other books
in the same category? This book is told entirely from the perspective of a very disturbed man and contains much that might cause the reader to question the reality of certain characters and situations. It also incorporates some dark fantasy, yet all is subjective as to what might be true and what might simply be the invention of Jonas Dumar’s fractured
mind.
Have you published any other books? Do you plan to publish more? In 2012, I published my first novel, Hope Flies on Broken Wings, a tragic love story set on the edge of medieval fantasy. I am currently working on its much-requested sequel.
I am also writing a collection of macabre short stories. I tend not to be a slave to genre.
I write what inspires me.
