Meet Underground Author, Caleb Pirtle III

A group of writers known as the Underground Authors are the creative minds behind the Magnolia Bluff Crime Chronicles series. A different member of the group writes each book, and each author brings their own take on mystery and murder to this little town in the Texas Hill Country.

This month we are treated to the unique writing style of prolific, award-winning author Caleb Pirtle III. Ever since I read his book, Eulogy in Black and White, which is the second book in the Magnolia Bluff series, I've been intrigued with Mr. Pirtle's writing. I've never had a reading experience like the one he provides in his novels. It is a wonderful and satisfying experience I invite everyone to share. His prose moves at a pace that is both quick and easy to read and relaxing to the eyes all at the same time. You can't help but continue to turn the pages wanting to find out what comes next. Not a word is wasted anywhere on the page. His writing will make you sit up and think as a smile crosses your face wondering how he painted such a strong and vibrant visual in your mind with so few words. The answer? It's easy when they are the right words. And Caleb Pirtle III is a master at picking the right words.

He has written over eighty books in his career and gets better with each new story he pens. I'm a fan. I believe once you've read one of his books, you will become a fan too.

His newest, Death in the Absence of Rain: Magnolia Bluff Crime Chronicles: book 15 releases on July 20th and is available now for pre-order.

Order it here: Death in the Absence of Rain 

Here is the blurb for the book:

In Texas, it has been a long, hot summer.

Blistering temperatures.

Scorched earth.

An empty sky.

No rain at all.

Trapped in the midst of a generational drought, the water level of Magnolia Bluff’s Burnet Reservoir begins to drop, and the ghost town of Crystalline Flats slowly comes back from the dead.

When the river was dammed to create the reservoir, the flood had overwhelmed the dying old town and left it buried underwater.

Now the ruins are rising like skeletons of stone and wood from their watery grave.

And the secrets of Crystalline Flats are secrets no longer.

They are a dreadful tale of murder.

And who lives and who will kill again to make sure the mysteries from the past remain hidden and silenced forever?

Some believe their past sins were washed away.

Now those sins are back to haunt the guilty.
