Chuck Brickell asked Ellery Adams:

I am just finishing the Supper Club Mystery. Trying to buy The Battered Body and Black Beans & Vice I found they were not on the shelf of my local Barnes and Noble. When I asked if I could order them I was told "we no longer order books by this author". As much as I prefer to support bookstores I ended up ordering from Amazon. I am curious, what is the problem between your works and Barnes & Noble?

Ellery Adams I'm guessing here, but I believe it has less to do with me and more to do with the publisher. Midnight Ink is no longer in business, so the B&N distributors probably can't get their hands on their titles to sell in their stores. I appreciate your sharing this with me and for supporting brick-and-mortar bookstores. Like you, I try to do this whenever I can, but there are times I have to use Amazon too. Take care!
