Merry Christmas! |
The biggest problem with the move has been how it has interfered with my writing. The good news for readers is I have a mystery series that will be releasing Jan. 10th. The good news for you... It is out in pre-order at a sale price of $0.99. When it releases the price will go up.
The first novel I wrote was a mystery. It feels right to finally make my way back to writing mysteries. I'm keeping my signature Native American branding with the mystery series. The amateur sleuth is a half Nez Perce potter.
Here is the blurb and the links to pre-order the first Shandra Higheagle Mystery.
On the eve of the biggest art event at Huckleberry
Mountain Resort, potter Shandra Higheagle finds herself in the middle of a murder
investigation. She’s ruled out as a suspect, but now it’s up to her to prove
the friend she witnessed fleeing the scene was just as innocent. With help from
her recently deceased Nez Perce grandmother, Shandra becomes more confused than
ever but just as determined to discover the truth.
Detective Ryan Greer prides himself on solving crimes
and refuses to ignore a single clue, including Shandra Higheagle’s visions. While
Shandra is hesitant to trust her dreams, Ryan believes in them and believes in
her.
Can
the pair uncover enough clues for Ryan to make an
arrest before one of them becomes the next victim?
Merry Christmas Everyone!

Paty, I love your Isabella Mumphrey mysteries, so I'll be eager to read your new series. Hope your new home is as pleasant (and finished) as your dreams for it are.
ReplyDeleteCaroline, Thanks! So far my critique partners and beta readers have loved the mystery so that's a good news. I hope to get another Isabella book out this coming year. This year life interfered with my writing. I hope we make it into the house before we start getting the nasty weather everyone else is.
DeleteSo glad to see George the Burro again! And looking forward to your new series. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Genene! Thanks for stopping in.
DeleteHey, maybe we can proclaim you the female Tony Hillerman! Your mystery series sounds like my cup of tea. Btw, I have a friend who is Cherokee mainly whose last name is Higheagle. I met him when I was writing a piece for the paper. He was a friend of Iron Eyes Cody, and he had the most amazing photo collection.
ReplyDeleteLOL- That would be awesome! But my stories don't happen on the reservation. I have a couple planned that will take my protagonist there. I figured there were real Higheagles out there, but I liked the name. That sounds like it would be amazing from what you mentioned. I need to dig into the past of a great-great uncle who took photos in Nebraska. MY dad said he had an extensive collection of Native American items. He(my dad) thinks the items were donated to a museum. That's one of the trips my hubby and I are going to take now that he's semi-retired. ;)
