My novel Random Acts of Unkindness is on Kindle Scout

I'm very pleased that my crime novel, Random Acts of Unkindness, is on Kindle Scout. It would be fantastic if you could read an excerpt and nominate it for publication. If it gets published by Kindle Press you will receive a free copy.

The competition is strong, but I hope that I can stay 'hot and trending' at least some of the time, with your help.
