From twilight in the long-term parking lot at Dulles Airport to a sunlit afternoon in a Belarus orchard, the action winds breathlessly eastward as Casey Collins and her small band of unlikely cohorts struggle to contain a nuclear evil let loose when the Cold War ended.
Casey is an all-too-human Foreign Service Officer whose specialty is counterterrorism. En route to Berlin for an international conference, a crushing series of events force her back into the field in pursuit of a missing nuclear physicist and a supply of stolen plutonium. Casey must also face the heartbreaking challenges of her father's Alzheimer's disease, her godchild's leukemia, and the questions that a friend's pregnancy raise about her own choices in life.
East Past Warsaw adds depth to characters introduced in 12 Drummers Drumming and Night on Fire and takes the reader on a twisting ride through post-Cold War Europe
Diana Deverell has published six novels, a short fiction collection, and many short stories.
Her newest project is a series of legal thrillers set in Spokane and featuring Nora Dockson, a death penalty appeal attorney with a checkered past. The first, Help Me Nora, will be released in July, 2014.
Diana made her debut as a novelist in 1998 with a series of international thrillers featuring State Department counterterrorist analyst Kathryn “Casey” Collins: No Place for an Honest Woman, 12 Drummers Drumming, Night on Fire, and East Past Warsaw. Her short story, "Warm Bodies in a Cold War", originally published in 1996 under a different title, introduced Casey to the readership of the Foreign Service Journal. The story and all four thrillers are now available as ebooks.
In 2000, her short fiction starring FBI Special Agent Dawna Shepherd started making regular appearances in Alfred Hitchcock’s Mystery Magazine. Her mystery collection, Run & Gun: A Dozen Tales of Girls with Guns, includes eleven Dawna Shepherd stories first published by Alfred Hitchcock, plus all-new “Latin Groove”. Both the collection and “In Plain Sight,” her 2013 mystery, are available in e-editions. Dawna’s latest adventure, “Blown,” is scheduled for December 2014 release in the Kobo Special Edition of Pulse Pounders, a Fiction River anthology.
In 2012, Diana released her comic mystery novel, Murder, Ken Kesey, and Me as an ebook.
Other digital editions include "Heart Failure", a short story set on the day Jim Morrison died, written to order for a publisher of textbooks for Danish teens learning English.
