About Depraved Heart (from the publisher): "Depraved heart" is a legal term for a certain kind of careless murder ... could that explain why Bronte White-Hawke, eighteen year old part-time poet and full-time spitfire, is forced to sit through the trial of the century? Did her foster father murder her foster stepmother and if so, why? Luckily she has a thirty room mansion with a full wine cellar to return to at the end of the day to party with siblings, lawyers and bodyguard. Or is it?

About the author: Melissa Clark, who writes under the pen name of Alysse Aallyn, is the author of three other psychological thrillers: Devlyn, Find Courtney and Woman into Wolf. She says, "I'm inspired by the noir genre but I approach it from the feminine angle. Personally, I'm compulsive about mysteries. I'll cross a crowded sports bar to turn up the TV to hear more about a body found in a freezer. I think need to know is hardwired into the human psyche. The answer should come as a revelation, but, deep down, it should be something you knew all along." Visit her website at TheMidnightReader.com.
