Amy Pease talks trauma, tropes + tension in Wildwood in Ep. 18 of My Bookcase Slays

Wildwood, Amy Pease’s sequel to Northwoods, gripped me from the first scene when a young woman is discovered missing. We chat about her fictional setting of Shaky Lake, which is based on Wisconsin’s Minocqua resort area. The formidable Sheriff Marge North and her son Elia again team up with Alyssa Mason, an FBI agent from Chicago to investigate why and how an undercover informant disappeared. Their search leads them to discover terrifying secrets about a local rehab clinic. Learn what inspired Amy’s fascinating and complex characters, the origin story behind Northwoods and Wildwood, and why she cannot hate any of her characters, even the bad guys! Bonus: Amy dishes which sexy Hollywood actor inspired Eli North.
