READ & LISTEN: PARTON & PATTERSON
What happens when the queen of country and the king of thrillers team up? They create a project that's the first of its kind. American music legend Dolly Parton and best-selling author James Patterson partnered up for "Run Rose Run," a Nashville-set mystery novel about two singers — an older, jaded icon and a young newcomer with a dark past. With the book, an accompanying country album of the same name that brings those characters' songs to life. The book and music album "Run Rose Run" are out now.
