Here we are in December! It’s been quite a year. My spouse retired, we downsized our home and moved closer to family. Our family also experienced a total of five surgeries in 2023, including one for me in May. Needless to say, we’re all looking forward to the coming holidays.

To cap off this year, I’m also offering two great deals on mystery and suspense novels for you. First up is a $.99 sale for book #4 in the Casey Holland mystery series, The Deep End. This deal is being offered through BookFunnel’s Mystery Bonanza group promotion featuring over 65 authors. The deal runs from Dec. 1-Jan. 1^st.

The Deep End is drawn from my volunteer experience inside a youth detention center years ago while I was studying criminology. I did a fair bit of volunteer back then and met all kinds of residents, some serving a sentence while others were awaiting trial. The youngest was twelve years old, the oldest seventeen, and included a boy who’d stabbed his mother over 40 times.

Here’s a short blurb for The Deep End:

MPT transit officer Casey Holland’s first volunteer shift at Fraserview Youth Custody Center turns deadly when the center’s director dies from heart failure. But all is not as it seems, and there are rumors that his death was no accident. Life soon becomes perilous for residents, Casey, and her best friend, Kendal. -- "Well-crafted book with lots of teasers”-Night Reader”

The second offer is the She Solves It! newsletter signup promo featuring 15 authors writing about women’s sleuths. Please note that this event starts today and runs only until Dec. 22^nd. 

Enjoy!
