Hi--As Camilla Crespi I've written seven mysteries in The Trouble With series, featuring food-loving amateur sleuth Simona Griffo. This June my psychological thriller, The Price of Silence, was published by Soho Press under my real name, Camilla Trinchieri. I have a website www.camillatrinchieri.com which posts the reviews o've gotten so far and also has excerpts of Price. My publisher told me about you. What a great idea to have writers and mystery lovers communicate with each other. Ciao to all Camilla
Margaret Maron, Judith Kelman, Linda Fairstein, The Road by Corman McCarthy, The Emperor's Children by Claire Messud and many many more.
Movies And TV Shows I Like:
Love the Las Vegas CSI show and Law and Order Special Victims unit. The last movie I saw that I thought wasbrilliant was a German movie called The Lives of Others about the secret service, Stasi, in East Germany.

Early Endorsements for “A Circle of Souls”
Linda Fairstein, NYT Bestselling Author: "A fascinating debut - this novel takes the reader to the darkest places in the human soul, from a writer with the authenticity to lead us there. A stunning thriller and an important read."
Judge Judy Sheindlin, star of the Judge Judy Show: "The seminal work of this fine author kept me glued to my chair until the adventure was over and the mystery solved. A great read!"
Book Synopsis:
The sleepy town of Newbury, Connecticut, is shocked when a little girl is found brutally murdered. The town s top detective, perplexed by a complete lack of leads, calls in FBI agent Leia Bines, an expert in cases involving children.
Meanwhile, Dr. Peter Gram, a psychiatrist at Newbury s hospital, searches desperately for the cause of seven-year-old Naya Hastings devastating nightmares. Afraid that she might hurt herself in the midst of a torturous episode, Naya s parents have turned to the bright young doctor as their only hope.
The situations confronting Leia and Peter converge when Naya begins drawing chilling images of murder after being bombarded by the disturbing images in her dreams. Amazingly, her sketches are the only clues to the crime that has panicked Newbury residents. Against her better judgment, Leia explores the clues in Naya s crude drawings, only to set off an alarming chain of events.
In this stunning psychological thriller, innocence gives way to evil, and trust lies forgotten in a web of deceit, fear, and murder.
Well, you're in luck because The Graveyard Shift is about police, police procedure, forensics, and crime scene investigation every day. It's a teaching website just for writers. Please stop by.
Unfortunately I have a lecture that night that I need to go to. What time is your event? Email me at camcrespi@aol.com. It's easier. Thanks for the great Valentine wishes. Ciao camilla
Hi Camilla! I was cruising through MySpace sending Valentine wishes to my friends. If it's not in your message box, I said: My all kinds of love come your way: romance, intimacy, friendship, family, community. I hope you've got April 15 on your calendar for my launch and birthday party at the Mysterious Bookshop! Maybe we'll even get to a DorothyL lunch before then. :)
Hi Camilla, you make a good point, but occassionally it is nice to have a little distraction. I think the online now feature does Crimespace a disservice but it is just my point of view. Thanks for the reply, I am now logging off once more so I can finish the edit on my next novel and no longer be tempted to see if there is anybody out there.
