Alexandra Giordano never knew she had it so good. Until it was all gone in an instant.

As she begins her daunting quest to uncover the black spots on her memory, what she finds isn't sweet or charming or even pleasant. And that's when she begins to question everything, including herself.

Her work as a Special Agent for the FBI is only a distraction, serving as a mental metronome...anything to crank the gears of her feeble mind.

And then it happens-a bizarre, ritualistic murder. She loses herself in her work, fully immersed
in the investigation. Unable to recall even her own kids, she's somehow able to formulate
coherent theories on what type of person could pull off such a sickening act.

As her mind slowly plugs a few memory gaps, her emotions are scrambled by the reality of her
worlds colliding. And the resulting explosion tears her in two.

Can she pick up all the incendiary fragments to solve the twisted crime while she clings to some
semblance of sanity?

One woman can only keep so much...AT Bay.

Q&A with author John W. Mefford:

Q: Is AT Last (book 6) really the final Alex Troutt thriller?

JWM: Yes -- but only temporarily. The Alex Troutt Thrillers comprise the first sub-series in the Redemption Thriller Series. Next up are the Ivy Nash Thrillers - all six novels will be published in 2017. I anticipate at least two more sub-series in the Redemption Thriller Series. Each sub-series stands on its own, but the main characters and underlying plot will ultimately connect by the time I publish all books in the Redemption Thriller Series. And yes, Alex will return in another six novels later in the series. It's the most challenging and fulfilling creative endeavor I've undertaken. IN Defiance is the first novel of the Ivy Nash Thrillers and is available now.


Q: Are you sure AT Last isn't the last of Alex? I mean, the tittle seems to suggest it's the last one.

JWM: Trust me, it's only the beginning. I focus on one set of characters for six novels, but subtly weave in the necessary plot elements to have each of the sub-series connect when I reach the final six thrillers in the Redemption Thriller Series. It's been a blast to write.


Q: How are Alex Troutt and Ivy Nash connected?

JWM: If I told you, I'd have to kill you.:) But when you find out over the course of releasing each sub-series in the Redemption Thriller Series, it will make you shudder.


Q: Do I need to read all of the books in the correct order?

JWM: Not necessarily. Each book can be read as a stand-alone, as can each sub-series. But for the most fulfilling reading experience, I recommend reading them in the following order:

Books in the Alex Troutt Thrillers:
AT Bay
AT Large
AT Once
AT Dawn
AT Dusk
AT Last

Books in the Ivy Nash Thrillers:
IN Defiance
IN Pursuit
IN Doubt
Break IN
IN Control
IN The End


Q: When you finally finish all the books in the Redemption Thriller Series, are you just going to retire?

JWM: I'm just getting started. In the near future, I'll be kicking off a co-authoring project with a friend of mine, and I have another mystery-thriller series in mind that I'm really excited about. I could see that series expanding into something much broader. Who knows what my mind will cook up....maybe it will end up being 24 novels as well.
