Robin is a mystery author from Toronto, living in Vancouver. She loves to chat about books with everyone except her husband, who hates reading. This is probably a good thing, in that it gets her outside doing things when she could happily lose herself in fiction.

It’s a Cover-Off

ECW Press, AKA coolest publisher on Planet Earth, is in the process of redesigning the Clare Vengel cover art.

Starting with Dead Politician Society, they’re looking for a new concept to run with for the series, and they want as much input as possible.

Does one of these covers grab you more than the others? All comments and feedback are welcome. Thanks for participating!
