“Nightswimming” by R.E.M.I know Michael Stipe says he doesn’t write love songs, but R.E.M. certainly writes love melodies. “Nightswimming” is beautiful and romantic, and so much of this book takes place at night on the beach.

“Caroline” by David Gray
Self-explanatory. A great song!

“Games Without Frontiers” by Peter Gabriel (with Kate Bush)
I’ve always loved this song. It’s so sly and slinky, and it is perfect for my only espionage book.
Note from JQ in 2023: I have since written another espionage book: The Other Miss Bridgerton. And actually maybe What Happens in London qualifies, too. -
“I Got Six”” from Schoolhouse Rock
I am a huge Schoolhouse Rock fan, and it seems appropriate to celebrate my sixth book with this jazzy number.
