Writing Wrongs host and best-selling author William Myers Jr. welcomes international best-selling author Tess Gerritsen to the studio. 

Internationally bestselling author Tess Gerritsen took an unusual route to a writing career. A graduate of Stanford University, Tess went on to medical school at the University of California, San Francisco, where she was awarded her M.D.   While on maternity leave from her work as a physician, she began to write fiction. In 1987, her first novel was published. Call After Midnight, a romantic thriller, was followed by eight more romantic suspense novels. She also wrote a screenplay, “Adrift”, which aired as a 1993 CBS Movie of the Week. Tess’s first medical thriller, Harvest, was released in hardcover in 1996, and it marked her debut on the New York Times bestseller list.  Her books have been published in  40 countries.  She has won both the Nero Wolfe Award and the Rita Award.  

After an unspeakable tragedy in Boston, Ava Collette flees to a remote village in Maine, where she rents an old house named Brodie’s Watch. In that isolated seaside mansion, Ava finally feels at peace … until she glimpses the long-dead sea captain who still resides there.  Captain Jeremiah Brodie has haunted the house for more than a century.  Ava confronts an apparition who looks and feels all too real, an apparition who welcomes her into his world — and into his arms. Even as Ava questions her own sanity, she eagerly looks forward to the captain’s ghostly visits.  But she learns that the house she loves comes with a terrible secret, a secret that those in the village don’t want to reveal.
