Surprise! Murder, She Floats is Now Available for Pre-Order on Kindle.


It's the end of the summer and Journalist Penelope Trubble has returned home to help her father with the Private Eye business. With a contest prize of ten thousand dollars on the line, the town is full of summer vacationers on the hunt for the rare 1913 Liberty Head nickel that was lost to Bohemian Lake over fifty years ago. With the help of spitfire local, Eve Berns and Cody Lumos, the town's handsome new detective, amateur sleuth Lucky Penny takes the bait and goes diving for the story behind the legend of the million dollar coin. Unfortunately, her dive turns up more bodies than missing treasure. The deeper she digs, the more secrets she finds hidden in the sand, but will she be buried along with them?


Pre-Order your copy of Murder, She Floats now for just .99 cents or less. Price goes up August 29th.


Oh readers! I had so much fun writing the characters of Bohemian Lake. I can't wait for you to meet them. Especially spunky older spy-wannabe Eve Berns. She's a hellcat and a half, and she's determined to help Penelope solve every mystery. Murder, She Floats is the perfect summer read, so grab it now for cheap and it will be delivered to your device in time for the final long weekend of the summer. 

Cheers!

Dream Movie Cast & Contest for Desert Blood. Enter the Rafflecopter to Win

Guest Blog for The Mysterious Ink Spot http://rachaelstapleton.blogspot.ca/ by Anna Lowe, author of Desert Blood, Book 2 in the Wolves of Twin Moon Ranch series. My dream movie cast for Desert Blood? I have to admit the question had me stumped. It's like finding an actor to play your boyfriend or your sister: who could possibly be close enough to represent them? When I write a book, it always starts with a character that crops up in my mind, and it doesn't take me long to give him or her a look, a voice, a profession (always a profession: my heroines are all working women with passion for what they do, whether that's teaching, negotiating land rights, or consulting for a renewable energy firm). So I find it difficult to match them with a movie star or existing face. Cody, the hero of Desert Blood, is the oft-overlooked second son to his wolfpack's ruling alpha. He's created a role for himself: the carefree, easy-going playboy type. Inside, t

Let’s Get MYSTERIOUS!

In honor of Mystery Thriller Week, I thought we’d discuss the genre I love reading and writing: MYSTERY. Cozy, Suspense, Thriller, doesn’t matter, these intricate stories all have a similar set of components, including but not limited to a problem solver, a red herring or three and of course a solution. For me, the key to a good mystery lies in the plot. Does it have twists and turns? Does it shock you into suspending your belief? And does the author dole out just the right amount of twists at the right time? Reading a good mystery is like peeking through a keyhole. It’s all about perspective—you are limited to what you see. Not to mention, you only see what someone (the author) wants you to. The suspect is holding a knife over a dead body. Now you’re close to solving the murder right? But just one shift in that room and/or view, and you can see the clue in a different light. There’s a gun to the person’s head and they were forced to pick up the knife. Oh the twists to be had! I
