Deadly Currents Is Available in Large-Print


For those of you who perfer to read large-print books, I want to make sure you know that Deadly Currents, the first book in my Rocky Mountain Outdoor Adventure mystery series starring whitewater river ranger Mandy Tanner, was released in large-print on July 27th. Sure, most of the sales will be to libraries, but that means you library readers now will have the choice of reading Deadly Currents in large print. If you're feeling flush with funds and are in a buying mood, here's the Amazon page and Barnes & Noble page for the large-print version from Thorndike Press, an imprint of the Gale Cengage Learning. Happy reading!

News Tidbits: A Bestseller List, A New Cover, Plummeting Squirrels


For the end of the workweek, here's some news tidbits.

First, Deadly Currents made it onto the May Trade Paperback Bestseller List from the Mystery Lovers Bookshop, one of the largest specialty mystery book stores in the country. And it's position was #6. Woot! Many thanks to all of my readers.

Second, Thorndike Press has released the cover art for the large-print version of Deadly Currents that will be released July 27th. You can see it HERE, and here's the Amazon page for it (which as of this writing didn't have the cover art on it yet).

Third, the plummeting squirrels. My husband and I are in our Breckenridge house for awhile, in anticipation of my Saturday, July 2nd, 3-5 PM book signing at The Next Page Bookstore in Frisco, Colorado. It will be a fundraiser for the Gore Range Chapter of Trout Unlimited. If you're in the area, I hope you'll stop by and bring friends.

But, back to the plummeting squirrels.

They've managed to make a nest in the roof eaves above the sliding glass door out to the deck. They don't have a deck or porch, though, just a hole leading directly out into open air. So, every so often during the day, we'll hear a THUD as one of them falls out and drops to the deck. They always manage to shake themselves off, and with much chittering with their family members up above, eventually scamper up the side of the house back to the hole. We've been lucky that none have landed on us as we go in and out, but we'll have to BEWARE THE PLUMMETING SQUIRRELS!
