SJ Rozan

1 - What's your latest?

SJ Rozan: ON THE LINE, St. Martin's Press, Sept. 28th.

2 - Assuming I haven't read it, why should I?

SJ Rozan: It's a ticking-clock thriller that sends Bill Smith racing all over New York. If you like high-octane action and a large cast of weirdos, try ON THE LINE.

3 - What can you tell us about your main character that you hadn't realized until you answered the question?

SJ Rozan: He can unravel.

4 - What's your favorite scene and why?

SJ Rozan: The one where Bill Smith, Lydia Chin's cousin Linus Wong, and a big yellow dog named Woof attempt what Linus refers to as "a split-second precision elite military rescue operation. Like Navy SEALs." Because I never got to write a scene for a swimming dog before.

5 - What's next?

SJ Rozan: GHOST HERO. Set in the art world -- galleries, artists' studios. Talk about weirdos...
