    PHILADELPHIA, PA, May 11, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- May 9, 2015 on "Off the Shelf Radio" (http://www.blogtalkradio.com/Denise-Turney-) literary talk show host, Denise Turney, sits down with author, Dionne Peart, creator of Somerset Grove, a town based on Caribbean life. Dionne Peart is Jamaican, a practicing attorney and the author of Somerset Grove and Butterfly.
