SCAVENGER HUNT POST
Today, I am hosting Susanne Winnacker 
Susanne studied law before she became a full-time writer. She lives with her husband, a dog and three bunnies in Germany. She loves coffee (in every shape and form), traveling and animals.
When she isn't writing, you can usually find her in the kitchen, experimenting with new vegan dishes.


Find out more information by checking out the author website or find more about IMPOSTER here! 

EXCLUSIVE CONTENT

I'm delighted to present Susanne Winnacker's exclusive content...the reveal of the summary of DEFECTOR! (the sequel to Impostor):

Tessa has finally made peace with her life as a Variant. She and long-time love Alec are officially a couple, and for the first time, she has everything she wants.

But the air is tense at FEA headquarters. An agent has disappeared, and rogue variant organization Abel’s Army is likely the culprit.

When Tessa is summoned for her second mission, she is unexpectedly launched into a massive conspiracy. Her best friend Holly is kidnapped and Tessa knows it was meant to be her. But who is after her? And more importantly, why?

When the FEA’s efforts to rescue Holly don’t yield any results, Tessa takes matters into her own hands. Desperate to save her friend and uncover the mystery behind Abel’s Army, Tessa launches her own investigation—but nothing could prepare her for what she finds. Everyone in her life is harboring secrets: Alec, her estranged mother, even the father she never knew.

The truth will take her out on the road and out of her comfort zone, with danger lurking everywhere. Summoning all of her courage and strength, Tessa must decide who can be trusted and what is worth fighting for—even if it means going against the life she thought she wanted. Her final decision will leave readers breathless. 


And don't forget to enter the contest for a chance to win a ton of signed books by me, Susanne Winnacker, and more! To enter, you need to know that my favorite number is 6. Add up all the favorite numbers of the authors on the red team and you'll have all the secret code to enter for the grand prize!
