Soon I’ll be traveling to New Orleans, a great destination any time. But this trip will be super-special because I’m going to visit the set of RICOCHET, the movie for TNT based on my novel.

I’ve read the script, written by Donald Martin. He followed the book very closely and actually lifted a lot of my dialogue. If you’re familiar with the book, you’ll notice how closely his script adheres to it.

The cast is fantastic! John Corbett (The United States of Tara, Parenthood, Northern Exposure) plays Duncan Hatcher, the detective who’s in a moral dilemma about upholding his integrity as a homicide detective, and yielding to the temptation represented by Elise, played by Julie Benz (Dexter). Rounding out the lead roles are Kelly Overton (Tekken, In Plain Sight, Three Rivers, All My Children) who plays Hatcher’s partner, Dee Dee, and Gary Cole (True Blood, Chuck, The Closer, Entourage, Dodgeball, American Gothic) as Elise’s husband, Judge Laird.

I think it’s going to be a terrific movie and I can’t wait to visit the set – where I’m slated to do a cameo. We’ll see! I’ll touch base when I get back, and I hope to have photos to share with you.
