The book is done and sitting at the publisher. It is just hung up in all the legal mumbo jumbo with the agent. Actually started work on a new book while I wait.

The book is set mostly in the PNW. Parts are in Portland, some in Seattle and there are smaller parts in San Francisco and New Orleans.

It wasn't so much Green River inspired as it was inspired by wanting to explore the idea of one day having someone you know really well tell you something you really didn't want to hear. That said, there is a subplot in the story about a journalist from Seattle who has written several successful true crime books and she is writing a new one about this killer. She inadvertently ends up right in the middle of the mess. Her back story is that she shot to fame by writing two books on the Green River, one before he was caught and one after.
