About

Anne Marie used to work in radio, and it rocked! After studying Music Business at the University of Georgia, Anne Marie worked for several music venues, radio stations, and large festivals before trading in her backstage pass for a pen and paper (Okay, so she might have kept the pass...). Her debut novel, Murder at Castle Rock, was the winner of the 2012 AJC Decatur Book Festival & BookLogix Publishing Services, Inc. Writing Contest, and the 2013 Book Junkie's Choice Award Winner for Best Debut Fiction Novel. It was also a finalist for Best Mystery/Thriller in the 2014 RONE Awards. Gemma Halliday Publishing will be re-releasing Murder at Castle Rock, along with the currently untitled second book in the Amelia Grace rock 'n' roll mystery series.

<p><span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:22.3999996185303px;">&quot;Fast-paced and entertaining, Anne Marie Stoddard gives readers a backstage pass to murder taking center stage and demanding an encore.&quot; </span><br style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:22.3999996185303px;" /><em><span style="font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:22.3999996185303px;">~ Rochelle Staab, award winning author of the Mind for Murder mysteries</span></em></p> <p><big><span style="font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;">&quot;Stoddard isn't afraid to write about the seedier aspects of rock 'n' roll and the backstage goings-on...The book emphasizes rock 'n' roll, but not at the expense of the mystery, which is packed with surprises. There are so many layers, motives, and hidden agendas that I had a good time untangling it all.&quot; -</span><i style="font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;">P.J.

She is one of those heroines you'd like to be friends with, and you'll find yourself rooting for her throughout the novel. I also found myself becoming invested in her friends and co-workers, and hope that they become recurring characters. It's always nice to discover a new author, and I look forward to reading more of Anne Marie Stoddard's work.&quot; </span><i style="font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;">-Cozy Mystery Book Reviews</i></p>
