In the next book, Liz and Nate will be working in Charleston again. Lowcountry Bonfire takes place mostly in Stella Maris, with only a few scenes in Charleston. I knew I could only drop so many bodies in my small town before it became unbelievable.Ĭan you give us a hint about the next book in the series? I situated the town close enough to Charleston so that Liz could work many of her cases there. I created Stella Maris because I wanted Liz Talbot to have a small-town background, but I wanted her to live at the beach because I love the beach so much. The town that occupies the island is a quintessential small Southern town-a modern Mayberry-but it’s on a beautiful island. It sits just north of Isle of Palms, near Charleston, South Carolina. Stella Maris is an island in my imagination. It’s a real puzzle who might’ve killed him. They’re convinced Tammy Sue is innocent, but everyone liked Zeke. Liz and Nate are hired by the town of Stella Maris to help with the investigation. When Zeke turns up dead, Tammy Sue is the prime suspect. The day after Liz and Nate deliver the incriminating photos, Tammy Sue piles his clothes inside his classic Mustang convertible and lights a match. She’s hired them before, and they’ve caught Zeke red-handed engaging in some crazy shenanigans, but not adultery. Tammy Sue Lyerly, a Stella Maris resident, hires Liz and Nate because Tammy suspects her husband, Zeke, of infidelity. Tell us about Lowcountry Bonfire, without spoilers. Oh, and her best friend, Colleen, who’s been dead for eighteen years. But they have some challenges with her quirky extended family. Nate grew up in Greenville, and he has some trouble with their eventual transition to the Lowcountry. After graduation, she and Nate interned with the same private investigator in Greenville, and later started their own firm. She graduated from Clemson University (folks from South Carolina, I sent her brother, Blake, to Carolina) and she met her partner, Nate Andrews, there. Liz Talbot was born and raised in the small town of Stella Maris, on the coast of South Carolina. Would you introduce us to Liz Talbot and Nate Andrews? I can’t believe you’re already up to #6 in the Liz Talbot series.
We live in the Upstate of South Carolina, but spend a good bit of time in the Lowcountry, near Charleston.
My husband, Jim, and I have four grown children. But before I wrote them, my day job was in computer business systems. I’ve had a lifelong love affair with books, mysteries in particular. I’m originally from North Carolina, but have lived in South Carolina for nearly thirty years. Hey everyone! I’m Susan Boyer, and I write the Liz Talbot Mystery Series. Susan, would you introduce yourself to the readers? Susan was kind enough to agree to an interview. Now, the sixth novel in the series is out, Lowcountry Bonfire. Boyer won the Agatha Award for Best First Mystery Novel for Lowcountry Boil.
