Death in Norfolk in Print!

The paperback edition of A Death in Norfolk is now out!

Available from Amazon here.

Also in print is The Necklace Affair, which has been bundled with the two stories in The Gentleman's Walking Stick.
Available from Amazon here.

What's next? I'm working on A Disappearance in Drury Lane, which should come your way early next year. The target date is Feb or March. I plan to write 2-3 of these books a year.

Captain Lacey in Print

I'm pleased to announce that The Hanover Square Affair, Book 1 of the Capt. Lacey Regency Mysteries, is now available in print from Amazon.

If you know of readers who like to read in print form only, please alert them. At this point, The Hanover Square Affair must be ordered online from either Amazon or CreateSpace.

Next in the print queue is The Necklace Affair (and Other Stories)--not because it's next in sequence, but because The Necklace Affair thus far has been offered only in e-book form.

For the print edition, The Necklace Affair will be gathered with the stories in The Gentleman's Walking Stick to make one volume of the Captain Lacey tales. Just to be confusing, the cover art will be that of The Gentleman's Walking Stick, but with The Necklace Affair for the title. Look for that in a few weeks (I will post as well).

A Death in Norfolk is progressing on schedule. I am almost finished with the ms., and then it will be edited, proofed, etc. Pub. date should be October 15. Death in Norfolk will also be out in print, if not simultaneously with the e-release, then shortly thereafter (as in a couple of weeks). The rest of the series will follow!

I was also thrilled to learn that the Capt. Lacey series has now sold its 50,000th digital copy! Thank you for the continued support.

Captain Lacey Series at Smashwords

All the Lacey novels that have been e-released so far are now at Smashwords--as is the brand new, never-before-published The Necklace Affair!

The Necklace Affair has already reached Nook as well: Click here to go to the Nook version.

The Kindle version is still in process, should be ready in the next day or so. (You can also find a version for Kindle at Smashwords).

More to come!

Hanover Square at Smashwords etc

The Hanover Square Affair is now at Smashwords in every format (for Sony, Palm, ePub etc). It takes a while for Smashwords to upload to all the vendors, but you can get the book for your devices directly from Smashwords. The price is 99 cents.

Hanover Square and the others through Sudbury School Murders are already available on Amazon Kindle and B&N Nook (See http://www.gardnermysteries.com/  for links to them.)

Since the Smashwords process is now much faster, the other books will follow shortly.

And of course, The Necklace Affair is coming next month. Something new!

Coming Up

I am continuing to work on the Captain Lacey series so that the releases come out smoothly. The Sudbury School Murders will be out in mid-May on Nook and Kindle. (I'm also in process of getting all the books out to more vendors--Sony, iBooks, Kobo, and wherever else ebooks are sold.)

After Sudbury School , something new! The Necklace Affair, a never-before-published novella. The Necklace Affair began as an unfinished story I wrote a few years ago, while waiting all day at the city courthouse to be picked for jury duty (never was).

I'm expanding and finishing the story and have just contacted my cover artist to do the cover for it (plus covers for Body in Berkley Square and Covent Garden).

I plan to have The Necklace Affair ready to publish in mid-June. In Lacey's life sequence, it squeezes between Sudbury School and Body in Berkley Square.

BTW, this story will not replace Lacey Book 7 (tentatively titled A Death in Norfolk)--this is in addition to, not instead of.

So, look for Sudbury School in mid-May, and we march onward!
