Green Haven, Maine, is as far from the heat and violence of her past as Jane Bunker could hope for. When she trades in her career as a big-city homicide detective for a new job as a marine insurance investigator, Jane thinks that a fresh start in this sleepy seaside town will finally allow her the peace and quiet that she’s been craving.

But when the town drunk washes up on shore - with the back of his head smashed in - Jane realizes that Green Haven is not the quaint sanctuary she’d thought it was. The townspeople don’t think the tragedy is anything more than a drunk’s long walk off a short pier, but once Jane discovers the sordid details of the dead man’s past, it occurs to her that this just might be one local problem she knows a lot about, from her former life in Miami.

And down there they call it murder.

Unable to resist the lure of one last investigation, Jane makes it her business to find some answers. Though normally a woman of few words, Jane manages to talk herself into every corner of Green Haven, and in a small town like this, it isn’t long before the wrong person finds out that she’s been asking the right questions. In Green Haven, all answers lead to the ocean - and when Jane finds herself at sea, in the ferocious grip of an almost perfect storm, she has the chilling realization that her life may well be in the hands of the very murderer whom she’s been seeking.

Filled with an off-the-wall cast of eccentric characters headed by the unstoppable (and relentlessly thrifty) Jane Bunker herself, Slipknot is a riveting fiction debut made truly outstanding by Greenlaw’s inimitable voice, unerring ear for all things maritime, and talent for combining humor with edge-of-your-seat suspense.

About the Author: Linda Greenlaw is the author of the bestsellers The Hungry Ocean, All Fishermen Are Liars, and The Lobster Chronicles, and the coauthor, along with Martha Greenlaw, of Recipes from a Very Small Island. Before becoming a writer, she was the captain of a swordboat, a career that earned her a prominent role in Sebastian Junger’s runaway bestseller The Perfect Storm and a portrayal in the subsequent film. Greenlaw now lives on Isle au Haut, Maine, where she captains a lobster boat.

About the Performer: Though Sandra Burr acted on stage from the time she was six years old, it wasn’t until college that she had the opportunity to work with a microphone. She quickly realized she had found her niche. As a freelance voiceover talent Sandra’s voice has been featured on local, regional, and national commercials as well as countless industrial and instructional videos. Her favorite performances, however, can be heard on audio books. Where else, she points out, can an actor play all of the parts or talk to herself without attracting a lot of curious looks. Sandra both reads and directs for Brilliance Audio. She is married and has two sons.
