DAYTONA BEACH, FL (January 25, 2013) - TRG will provide author Tammy Kaehler with the fan experience of a lifetime: embedding with the team for the duration of the Rolex 24 at Daytona weekend, January 26-27, 2013. The Long Beach, CA-based writer will perform research for the third book in her successful Kate Reilly Racing Mystery Series, as well as give fans and racing newcomers a glimpse behind the scenes of the high-speed, high stakes endeavor.

Kaehler will have singular access to all team activities during the weekend, including attending team and driver meetings, observing crew and driver preparation and on-track practice, sitting in the pits for the entirety of the 24-hour race, and spending time on the pit box with a team radio headset. Throughout, she will share her experiences as a knowledgeable fan (the non-racing insider receiving insider access) through text and video updates to blogs, Twitter, and Facebook throughout the Daytona weekend.  Her notes, commentary, and perspective will be available on her own sites, TRG's sites, and to any interested media outlets. 

About Tammy Kaehler and the Kate Reilly Racing Mysteries:
Tammy Kaehler's career in marketing and technical writing landed her in the world of automobile racing, which inspired her with its blend of drama, competition, and welcoming people. Her debut, Dead Man's Switch, was nominated for the Eureka! for best first novel by the mystery community and highly praised by racing insiders. She takes readers back behind the wheel in Braking Points, the second Kate Reilly Racing Mystery, which has received positive early reviews and will be published in April 2013, just prior to the Long Beach Grand Prix. 

In Kaehler's third mystery, as yet untitled, Kate Reilly will try to uncover the person responsible for a senseless murder of a friend, while on-track she's pitted against fierce competitors and off-track against a troublemaker bent on disrupting the twice-around-the-clock epic race. Set entirely during the Rolex 24 at Daytona, the book is tentatively scheduled for publication by the series publisher, Poisoned Pen Press (www.poisonedpenpress.com) in April 2014.
