Bio:
Emily Strong is an actor, voiceover talent, and first time filmmaker. As a native of Michigan, she is a nature-lover at heart but has the mind of a city girl and moved to Chicago nearly three years ago because she wasn't smart enough to go somewhere warmer. She takes full advantage of what the city has to offer by training at legendary places like The Second City and eating lots and lots of ethnic food (will travel all the way across the city to Pilsen for the best tacos!). Her love of reading was the catalyst for her adventurous spirit and the reason why she is always stoked to tell stories in their many different forms.

More
about UNLEASHED:
UNLEASHED is
the first book in Emily Kimelman's best selling Sydney Rye series of
mysteries.
When
the series begins Sydney Rye is named Joy Humbolt. She does not like
people telling her what to do, so it comes as no surprise that she
was just fired from her last job. When she buys Charlene Miller's
dog-walking business on Manhattan's exclusive upper east side, it
seems like the perfect fit: Quiet environment, minimal contact with
people.
But
then one of her clients turns up dead, and Charlene disappears.
Rumors say Charlene was having an affair with the victim--and of
course, everyone assumes Joy must know where she is. Joy begins to
look into the crime, first out of curiosity then out of anger when
there is another murder and threats start to come her way.
When
police detective Mulberry is assigned to the case, Joy finds a
kindred spirit--cynical and none-too-fond of the human race. As they
dig deep into the secrets of Manhattan's elite, they not only get
closer to the killer but also to a point of no return. One last
murder sends Joy Humbolt hurtling over the edge. Her only chance of
survival is to become Sydney Rye.
