BENEATH THE SALTON SEA - a new novel from Michael Paul Gonzalez

Hi Larkspur Listeners! I know it's been a while. Will there be a season 2? or Season 3?! The answer is yes, but not yet. I've been writing a lot of short stories and novels, and the newest one just came out in November. It's creepy, it's set in one of the wildest places in southern California, and it's called BENEATH THE SALTON SEA. This is a companion piece to the novel. I hope you give it a listen and enjoy it. And if you do, why not pick up a copy of the book wherever books are sold?

Host Tara Bay examines the days following Jane Doe's failed escape attempt from the serial killer known as the Scientist. Jane had resigned herself to die in the facility, and tried to subtly convince the Scientist to end her life. Instead, he took her down an even darker path, until she found the one line he wouldn't forgive her for crossing. Jane discovers a way to break the Scientist's hold on her - but would he end her life, or abandon her to fate?
