Out on the Lanai: A Golden Girls Podcast

Rachel Ekstrom Courage, author of the New York Times bestselling Murder by Cheesecake, is back with her second Golden Girls cozy mystery: Death on the Lanai. In this episode of Out on the Lanai: A Golden Girls Podcast, we dig into what it was like to write a locked-room mystery set in a gorgeous, crumbling Biscayne Bay mansion, why Blanche Devereaux is the heart of this new book, and how a single offhand line from the show spiraled into an entire richly detailed backstory. We also get into the fan response to the first book, what research actually looks like when your source material is one of the greatest TV shows ever made, and the case for Stan as the fifth Golden Girl.
Death on the Lanai is available to order wherever books are sold.
