Interview with Sarah Madison

Why did you write
this book?

So often we get stories in which gaining a special power
makes life amazing for the hero. I wanted to explore the idea that such powers
could wreak havoc in someone’s life, and that they would do anything to rid
themselves of it, choosing normal over ‘special’ any day. That led to
Unspeakable Words, the first book in the Sixth Sense series. I knew then I had
a story too big for one book alone. Truth and Consequences is the third
installment in the series, and there are at least 1-2 more stories planned. In
the first story, by-the-book Special Agent Jerry Lee Parker gets assigned to work
with maverick, lone-wolf John Flynn, but it’s a chance contact with a
mysterious artifact that changes everything between the two men.

What is your favorite
genre to read?

I love mysteries and sci-fi—they are going to be my first
pick every time. Even better if there is a romantic subplot—that’s icing on the
cake!

Who is your favorite
character from fiction (not including your own)?

Hands down, Lord Peter Wimsey from the Dorothy Sayers
novels. Lord Peter spoiled me for other men when I was growing up. I feel very
fortunate in that respect. There are worse male characters to imprint on. His
relationship with mystery writer Harriet Vane is one of the healthiest, sanest,
adult relationships I’ve ever seen depicted.

What are you working
on at the moment, and will see from you in coming months?

At the moment, I’m currently working on a story set in the
1950s—my characters are part of a secret division of the CIA aimed at
collecting and investigating mysterious and powerful artifacts that have started
turning up since the advent of nuclear testing on Earth. I like to think of it
as “Ward and June Cleaver meets the X-Files.”

Please tell us about
your latest book.

When FBI agent Jerry Lee Parker wakes from a coma after a murderous
attack on his life, he has no memory of his immediate past. In the blink of an
eye, he has gone from having a nearly photographic memory to recalling nothing
of the last six months of his life, including his partner and lover, John
Flynn. While Lee tries to reboot his past and reconnect with John, there are
events at play around him he doesn’t understand. John is keeping secrets from
him, secrets which could get them both killed.

Matters come to a head when Lee is hounded to turn over a mysterious
artifact, of which he has no knowledge. The two men wind up in a fight for
their lives as they risk everything to keep the powerful relic out of the hands
of a ruthless killer. In order to protect those he loves, however, John may be
forced to make a deal with the devil.
