Richmond Review-- San Francisco Newspaper Covers Death Game

Story in Richmond Review on Death Game

The Richmond and Sunset districts are the setting for a recently published thriller entitled "Death Game," by Bay Area author Cheryl Swanson. After working in and visiting the City for years, the foggy and mysterious districts inspired Swanson's imagination to write this debut novel, which has received good reviews from Mystery Scene magazine, Midwest Review, and Foreward, one of the leading reviewers of small and academic press books.

Local trivia abounds, with mentions of sites and activities well-known to those who know the area, such as St. Ignatius Church, several of the area's Irish pubs, and famous city chefs frequenting the markets in the evening hours to select produce for their restaurant menus.

"Death Game" is available at San Francisco Mystery Bookstore and City Lights. For more information, visit the Web site at http://www.cherylswanson.net
