you for purchasing Black Jack (Jack Ryder #4). This was a fun book to write. I was on a trip to Savannah recently to attend a wedding and that was when the idea took form. The ravens, the Spanish moss, the beautiful but slightly scary old houses and of course all the stories. If you have never been to Savannah, you should go.

As always a lot of what I write about is actually true. At least parts of it. There are tunnels under Savannah and as far as I have been told, they were used to shanghai sailors to ships and to get rid of bodies during the Yellow Fever. All houses in Savannah worth anything are haunted, especially if you ask the tour-guides. The story of the general is one of the stories they tell and so is the one about the three girls being murdered in that very same house while the parents were out to dinner one night. When they came back three of the girls were dead, the fourth had survived. A tour guide I spoke to, told me that tourists often take a picture of the house, and when they look at the pictures afterwards they find the image of a little girl sitting in one of the windows. It is said, it is the general’s daughter.

I got the idea for a house driving people insane (or at least that’s what they think is happening) when we moved into our new house recently. There were so many strange things going on and so many sounds waking me up at night, roaches on the toilet seat, bugs flying into my hair, and strange smells in the kitchen, that I at some point thought, Boy this house doesn’t want us here, does it? My friend told us how they had once experience the part about the fleas. Nope I didn’t make that up either. Her two daughters had screamed from the living room of their house and she had run in there to see their legs covered in fleas living underneath the planks. It crept me out when she told me it, so I thought it would creep you out as well. You’re welcome.

Oh, and then there is the theory of the murder-gene. It is actually real. Scientists believe they have found out that killers share a gene that others don’t. Read more about it here:

he thought is
kind of terrifying to me. My guess is people who have the gene either become killers or writers, right?

A

my pleasure to write this book. I hope you’ll leave a review if it is in any way possible for you.
