| Author Notes: | Dead Boy is Laurel Gale's first novel. Gale says, "I wondered what it would be like for a 'live' dead boy to try to make friends. I had no idea what would happen next, so I kept writing to find out." Like Crow, Gale resides in the Nevada desert. She lives with her husband and a band of furry monsters that might actually be ferrets. You can visit Laurel online at laurelgale.com. |
