A: About 8 years ago, though I was off and on writing my book. This was due to two serious back surgeries.
Q: Did your environment or upbringing play a major role in your writing and why?
A: Yes, it did because my mother was an avid reader, and she always took me to the library with her and encouraged me to check out books and read them. She loved mysteries and handed that love down to me.

To Tell The Truth by Faye M. Tollison
Anna Kayce had faced many difficulties in her life and had carried some heavy responsibilities. When she met Senator Kenneth Levall, her world soared. At least until it collapsed. Until that fateful day when the gun she held fired, and the senator fell on the floor at her feet and died.
Undercover cop, Detective John Mentz, came into her life and fell deeply in love with Anna. He gave her reason to question her relationship with the senator, who he was investigating for drug trafficking.
But as strong a woman as Anna was, she had to dig deep to find the strength to endure what followed: the murder of her sister, the destruction of her life, and lastly facing a courtroom full of people, a judge, and a jury in an effort to save the man she really loved. He had confessed to the murder of the senator in order to protect Anna from being charged with the murder.
It was now time for Anna to stand up and tell the truth.
