The Tears of Dark Water is one of John Grisham's best reads of 2015!

I'm thrilled to announced that John Grisham recently selected my novel, "The Tears of Dark Water," as one of his three best reads of 2015! Amazon posted his list on its Omnivoracious blog today.

Lauren I read A Walk Across the Sun before it came out and I fell in love. The topic of Human Trafficking has always held a special place in my heart. I've read numerous non-fiction books on the topics and I found your novel to mirror a lot of the facts I've read in those books. You told this story in such a beautiful heartbreaking way, I'm pushing this novel on my youtube channel and on all my friends. Gorgeous work.
