"Webs of Fate grabbed my interest from the first line of the prologue and wouldn't let me go."

Nancy Taylor Rosenberg, New York Times bestselling author of The Cheater and My Lost Daughter

“On first opening the pages of Darlene Quinn’s Webs series, readers may well feel that they are in for an engaging ‘all about’ novel—in Quinn’s case all about the glamorous, dangerous, byzantine, and ultimately exciting world of fashion and high-end retail—and those readers would be right. But wait! There’s more! Quinn develops her storylines and plot in a way that keeps the world engaging and the books charging forward. And don’t get complacent—nothing is what it seems and no character is without great secrets that will twist events and surprise the reader in breathtaking ways. There’s a great deal of fun and entertainment to be had in falling into these beguiling webs.”

Frank Gaspar, author of Stealing Fatima, Endowed chair/distinguished professor and writer in residence, University of Massachusetts

With obvious “insider’s” knowledge, Darlene Quinn has created a web of intrigue that draws the reader into the best and worst of the retailer¹s world. I found myself rooting for her smart women, and wishing I could boo the villains. The book came with me on a trip, and once I began reading, I made sure it was always within easy reach. Best of all, I can say proudly, Darlene was once one of my students.

Darlene Quinn expertly captures the drama, greed, and emotional tumult of personal lives gone awry during the hostile takeover attempt of a high-end retail chain in Webs of Power.

Award Winner 2009

 
Just before we left Long Beach for the last leg of my book tour, we received news that Webs of Power has been named the Winner of the 2009 National Indie Excellence Awards for Fiction. A real surprise. I almost did not enter since award winning novels tend to be populated with down-trodden character and are a bit on the dark side—quite different from my upscale characters and setting.
Our tour includes 12 author signings, and 6 TV shows, all listed on  
http://booktour.com/author/darlene_quinn.  Also, I have had a number of radio interviews. Since the economy caught of with the background of my character-driven novel, my PR firm has taken advantage of my retail management background and has placed me on radio from coast to coast about 3-4 times a week, even now from hotel rooms. It is hectic, but we are also taking out time for a bit of fun. Went  to the Mall of the America’s on Sunday-What a place. Fortunately, our timing is perfect,  and we will are able to join the Musical Theater West Travel Group for dinner and a show on the 27th.
Neither, my husband, Jack , or I have ever been to Atlanta and are looking forward to a few free days there to explore not only Atlanta, but other locations in Georgia as well. 
While on Book tour and until the completion of my manuscript for Twisted Webs, the sequel to Webs of Power, my assistant, Kathy Porter, will keep my blog going, and most likely do a much better job than I have over the past few months.
