Happy Holidays!
November 2010
Did we blink and 2010 go by in a flash?
Sure seems like it.
As we enter the Holiday Season, we want to take the time to thank you for all your encouragement and support. Ever since the first Evelyn David story appeared in print, you've been the motivation we've needed to keep writing. The warmth of that virtual embrace – and sometimes the personal hug we've gotten from a reader we meet at a signing or
convention – that's what keeps us putting pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard).
We end the year with a new publisher, the incomparable Tony Burton of Wolfmont Press. He has re-released Murder Off the Books and Murder Takes the Cake, both in print and e-book formats. He will publish the newest Sullivan Investigations mystery, Murder Drops the Ball next spring.
We've also entered the e-book revolution on our own, with a new series, the Brianna Sullivan Mysteries.
Hell on wheels or a psychic in a travel trailer? Brianna Sullivan gave up her job finding missing luggage for the airlines in order to seek the freedom of the open road. Her first stop? The small town of Lottawatah, Oklahoma. Using her psychic abilities, Brianna takes on a
multitude of jobs to earn gas money, help out the local police detective, and direct some troubled souls towards the light. I Try Not to Drive Past Cemeteries, Volume 1 of this series, contains two short stories - I Try Not To Drive Past Cemeteries and Dead But Not Buried in Lottawatah.
In Volume 2, The Dog Days of Summer in Lottawatah, Brianna, still in Lottawatah, Oklahoma, is now being pestered by the ghostly ex-girlfriend of main squeeze Detective Cooper Jackson. The apparition won't move away from Cooper and towards the light until Brianna figures out who killed her. This novella length story finds Brianna selling lake lots for a new resort, attending her boyfriend's high school class reunion where the guests aren't all of this world, and tracking down a killer (or two). The Dog Days of Summer in Lottawatah has a mystery to die for, characters you'll love, and sparkling dialogue that will make you laugh out loud. Who knew ghosts could have such a good sense of humor?
Just in time for the revelry, you will enjoy The Holiday Spirit(s) of Lottawatah. In the third volume of the Brianna Sullivan Mysteries, psychic Brianna is in over her head in Lottawatah, Oklahoma and maybe head over heels with the town's deputy. 'Tis the season to be jolly and the ghosts of Lottawatah are determined to horn in on the holiday celebrations. In Giving Thanks in Lottawatah, Brianna Sullivan must find an engagement ring that has been missing for 35 years, deal with the mother of her boyfriend who is holding a grudge because Brianna almost killed her with crab dip, and wrangle family ghosts to give up old secrets and enjoy the holiday. For a "who-dun-it" mixed with family secrets, and of course a full plate of laughs, check out Giving Thanks in Lottawatah.
There won't be much to celebrate at Christmas for 14-year-old Tim Cramer unless Brianna can find the killer who framed his father for murder. Her best witness? The dead man himself. But getting a ghost to spit out the information she needs is never easy. Instead, Brianna must use old-fashioned detective skills to find the real killer and bring holiday joy to Tim and his family. For a heartwarming, but mysterious holiday story, with Brianna's signature humor, enjoy Bah Humbug in Lottawatah.
We wish you a holiday season of joy and all our best wishes for a happy, healthy new year!
