WHAT BURNS WITHIN?
"Well worth adding to any mystery collection."
-- Library Journal
"Ruttan manages to keep multiple leads and seconds on the same page admirably... the straight proceduralism from Ruttan serves the story well through the rewarding climax."
--Publishers Weekly
"A sizzling story by one of crime fiction's hot new voices."
-- Rick Mofina, internationally best-selling author of A PERFECT GRAVE
"This story features a triple mystery and three main characters, who are interesting not only for their tangled group dynamic but also as individuals. The subject matter obviously is very grim, but the occasional banter between the constables helps to take the edge off. This is a good start to a new series I think will appeal to a variety of mystery lovers."
--Fresh Fiction
"Sandra Ruttan writes with utter ferocity. Twists and turns that stun and dialog that absolutely crackles with wit and authenticity. With each page, Ruttan delivers the goods. WHAT BURNS WITHIN is a nonstop chiller of a mystery that keeps you turning the pages."
-- GREGG OLSEN, New York Times Bestselling Author of A WICKED SNOW
"Promising talent Ruttan sets her gritty new detective series in Vancouver. It has a hard-edged feel and intriguing characters. ...this is a good start to an intriguing series."
--Romantic Times Book Reviews
"Short and snappy chapters, terse dialogue, staccato delivery of minimalist descriptions -- Ruttan's style harks back to the classic hardboiled era....Ruttan is very much a shower rather than a teller: there are very few internal monologues to be heard in WHAT BURNS WITHIN, the subtleties of the characters' complex psychologies being drawn out through their interactions with their colleagues. That's a difficult skill to make invisible, but it's one of Ruttan's most effective weapons."
--Declan Burke, Crime Always Pays
"Ruttan effortlessly brings to life a varied cast of complex characters. She writes with tremendous passion, honesty and skill. This is a story you will care about."
-- Allan Guthrie, Edgar Nominated Author of KISS HER GOODBYE
“Ruttan combines devilishly clever plots with genuinely empathic characters..."
--Russel D. McLean, Crime Scene Scotland
"A totally mesmerizing narrative and a plot that burns off the page."
-- Ken Bruen, Shamus Award-Winning Author of THE GUARDS
“WHAT BURNS WITHIN reads like a favorite television series. A large cast, lots of dialogue to advance the plot, a great setting, and well-drawn characters make for a compelling police procedural.”
-- Anne Frasier, USA Today Bestselling Author of HUSH, SLEEP TIGHT & PLAY DEAD

Whoo-fricken-hoo indeed, my friend. That really sums it up! Thank you for shouting from the rooftops for me:)
My pleasure! I'm so excited! Pahty time!
I'll have to get the disco ball out of storage...
...eh...J.T....it's in the "Soon-To-Be-Published Author's Handbook," no disco balls. I know, I was surprised it was there, too.
Way to go, my friend. The long wait is finally over, the time until publication is negligible in comparison. Enjoy every minute of it.
What? No disco balls? I'm giving it all back...
Heh heh heh, just kidding...
That's okay. Brett will grow the side burns and go for the Saturday Night Fever look, and you can have the Farrah Fawcett hairdo with the poncho.
They can take away the disco ball, but you still have your fashion freedom!
You're assuming I don't already have the Farrah look -- which has been known to happen entirely by accident. But Brett in sideburns -- wowza!
Sideburns are NOT an option...
Grump....
Gawd, isn't he though?
He'd probably be all miffed if we spiked his drinks at B'Con and added some designer ones to his face too. Just all particular that way.
Then let's go 80's and dye his hair pink and purple and give him a mohawk.
And update him with a nose piercing and a couple of tatoos...
Shoot, that was another $1.25, wasn't it? :)
No no, that kicks in tomorrow!
Oh god, my stomach hurts. First Monica on her hands and knees, now this. What size is Brett? Can we get him a styling white suit or should we go leather and chains?
Well, I've got my own leather and...wait a minute! I'll take the drinks, though!
(I shouldn't mention this, but in the early 80s I had a big perm and a moustache...it wasn't pretty.)
Jeez, Brett, and you worry about a couple of measly side-burns? I bet you looked like Magnum, PI.
Awesome! You can get those bottle perm jobs now.
Come to Madison with your plastic gloves!
That goes with out saying. I'm wearing my plastic gloves right now.
There are some days, I wonder just how low my comment threads can go!
Not much lower today, I don't think!
...eh...sorry...guess I'm partially to blame for that...but boy was this fun...
Don't be sorry Brett. I really couldn't think of a good, er, come back.
Congrats to JT!
*SQUUUUEEEEEEEEE!!!!!*
Yes, much excitement here. Congrats, J.T.!
