A Conversation with Libby Klein
Episode #40:
A Conversation with Libby Klein (April 28, 2025). The author of the Poppy
McAllister cozy mystery series is moving into women’s fiction (with
mystery overtones) with her new novel “Vice and Virtue.” We talk about
Layla Virtue, the recovering alcoholic ex-cop musician., her struggles to
stay off the bottle, and her desire to avoid being drawn into a murder
investigation. We also talk about the novel’s comical elements, and the
black Lab that plays a role in it.
