PODCAST INTERVIEW _
STEPHEN MURRAY _AUTHOR _WWW.AUTHORSTEPHENMURRY.COM _GHOSTMAN RADIO STATION
I am a Las Vegas based author, originally hailing from Great Britain.
I am the author of four self-published works of fiction. They are:
The Chapel of Eternal Love – Wedding Stories from Las Vegas
Return to the Chapel of Eternal Love – Marriage Stories from Las Vegas
Murder Aboard the Queen Elizabeth II
Discreetly Yours
The Chapel of Eternal Love is a fictional novel and an anthology of short and varied stories as to why couples venture to Las Vegas; forsake the trappings of a large family celebration; and opt instead for a small intimate wedding between bride and groom. (After all, we are the marriage capital of the world.)The reader is essentially invited to spend a day at the chapel with the wedding organizer, Rosemary, and her pet dog, Buster, as the various couples come and go. Rosemary and Buster are the link that turn the tapestry of stories into a novel. The diverse vignettes are touching, uplifting, humorous and occasionally heartbreaking. This is a novel about relationships. Essentially a ‘warm, feel good’ book; void of expletives or graphic sex, it is a fun and easy read, focusing around the universal language of love.
The critically acclaimed sequel, Return to the Chapel of Eternal Love – Marriage Stories from Las Vegas, was released in December 2015, and revisits the same couples five years hence. This was in response to reader requests as to where the paths of the couples took them once they left the altar.
For a change of pace, Murder Aboard the Queen Elizabeth II is a cozy mystery which relays the story of a fabulously wealthy Beverly Hills couple who are celebrating their silver wedding anniversary. They share it with their closest friends and dysfunctional family as they commemorate the occasion on the luxury liner, Queen Elizabeth II. Obviously , one of the cast of characters gets murdered between departing England and before docking in New York.
My fourth novel, Discreetly Yours, follows the lives of three ladies who work for an exclusive escort agency in Las Vegas. Due to the mistreatment of them by Frankie, the owner of the agency, they create the perfect crime to murder him. But is it the perfect crime? Do they indeed get away with murder? Furthermore, should they get away with murder?
All novels are void of expletives and graphic sex. There is minimal violence in the two murder stories.
All four books have received 5 star ratings from ‘Reader’s Favorite’, and the first three have gained positive reviews from Writers Digest.(Discreetly Yours is too new to submit for their contest.) The Chapel of Eternal Love won 1st place in the Authors Talk About It book contest, Mainstream Fiction category.
