Recently I asked Bailey about what she was reading. Her reply:
At ThrillerFest 2024, I was so happy to chat with my fellow Canadian author, Mailan Doquang. Mailan and I had connected on social media, but meeting in person is always such a fulfilling experience. I hadn’t yet had the chance toVisit Samantha M. Bailey's website.read her acclaimed debut, Blood Rubies, so I was very excited when she asked if I’d blurb the second book in the series, Ceylon Sapphires. It was a resounding yes, but I had no idea how exceptional a read it would be. Mailan is an architectural historian turned thriller writer, and her expertise and skill are on full display in this slick and dazzling novel. The feverish pace never lets up as the savvy Rune Sarasin cleverly attempts to outwit every player in a zero-sum game for her life. Action-packed and captivating, this stunning, globe-spanning suspense is one of the most exciting books I've ever read. It’s out June 3.
