Interview with Richard E. Roach
Tyler R. Tichelaar of Reader Views interviews Richard E. Roach about his
new book “Scattered Leaves.”
Tyler: Welcome, Richard. I’m glad you could join me today.
“Scattered Leaves” definitely sounds like a suspenseful story. Will you
begin by telling us what the situation is when the book opens?
Richard: Ben McCord comes home from witnessing a blow-out on a
drilling rig to find his wife raped and murdered.
Tyler: When Ben first finds his wife dead, does he have any
idea who would want to kill his wife?
Richard: No idea at all. At first he’s overcome with grief;
but soon the sorrow of it all is placed on a back shelf and anger begins
to boil.
Tyler: Tell us more about Ben McCord. Is he a typical hero, or
what do you think will make him appeal as a main character to readers?

What readers say about "Scattered Leaves" Scattered Leaves is a wonderful book combining suspense, mystery and
romance. From the descriptive writing, I could visualize the characters
and surroundings. You could feel the emotions of the main character Ben
- from the loss of his love and really the only family he had to finding
her murderer and finding love again. I look forward to reading more of
this author's books.

There is absolutely no doubt that Richard E. Roach can write. His
prose hits you right in the stomach, and it hits hard. I felt totally
desensitized. The violence never stopped. Undoubtedly well written,
“Scattered Leaves” by Richard E. Roach is a book I would recommend to
anybody who loves scenes of death, destruction, violation and
obliteration.
- Olivera Baumgartner-Jackson, Reader Views
Murder, drugs, oil, and a twist – ingenious.

This is an absolutely awesome book by Richard Roach. I could not put it
down. I work in this field and it was like a reality book to me filled
with spine tingling action that kept me glued to the book, but not to be
left out, a little tenderness in the mix. Drugs, murder, and falling in
love, I couldn’t ask for more.
- Lynda Posey, Evidence Technician, Texas DPS Crime Lab
A multilayered story filled with intrigue and skullduggery. Mr. Roach
is excellent with his descriptive ability both of characters and places.
I could feel the cold wind blowing on my face and hear the crunch of
snow under my shoes. A fun and entertaining read.
