The Georgia Davis PI Series (Audiobooks)

Georgia Davis made her first appearance, a cameo really, in the second Ellie Foreman novel, A Picture of Guilt. She was a cop then. I expanded her role in An Image of Death (Ellie #3). I knew by then that one day she would have her own series—I just had to wait for the right story.

That story was Easy Innocence, her first case as a Private Investigator. It's about high school girls and how far they will go to be accepted by their peers.

Georgia is cautious. She's a loner, and she has baggage. While Ellie would love to go out to lunch with and give you TMI about herself, Georgia won't take a lunch break. The Ellie books have a dry sense of humor (at least I hope so), but the Georgia books? Not so much—Georgia is a serious person. She is driven, partly by witnessing injustice, partly by her childhood, and partly because she can't bear to see people in pain.

Georgia has plenty of stories to tell, and six of them make up her series, all set in Chicago and the suburbs. They’re darker than the Ellie books, because Georgia is a darker personality. Abandoned by her mother when she was young, her alcoholic father raised her with a stern hand. In fact, Georgia's arc over the series has been to “lighten up,” forgive, and find the joy she so richly deserves.

Watch her develop her PI skills, and her humanity in The Georgia Davis PI Series.
