BOOK TALK Margo Hammond - Author Lisa Unger & Upcoming Book "Serves Him Right"

Margo Hammond (right) loves a good whodunnit, and is a huge fan of local author (and well-known nationally loved mystery writer) Lisa Unger (left)! Her newest book debuts in March, with a national tour and local events as well. Margo and Lisa talked about her craft, how she navigates the "dips" and the highly anticipated new novel.
SERVES HIM RIGHT A wickedly clever and deliciously dark tale of revenge, served up with Lisa Unger’s trademark style of thrills. Ana Blacksmith has gathered her closest friends and sister Vera together for a girls' brunch to celebrate her recent breakup from her boyfriend Paul. But when shocking news about Paul and his new girlfriend arrives, all eyes are on Ana, the angry ex with a bad reputation. Suspicions only intensify when Ana’s best friend falls gravely ill after the brunch.  But Ana is not the only one who had a score to settle with Paul, a business mogul with a whispered history. And the list of people who will not shed a tear over his fate is long. As the investigation unfolds, rumors of a secret network that uses ancient methods to obtain justice begin to emerge. Vengeance is sweet, but it can also be deadly. Ana and Vera are determined to find the truth before Ana takes the fall and their own long-buried history comes to light.
