And funny, your first comment DID show up. It beat the spam filter! Carol, I did have a say in the cover of the book, which was one of the great benefits of working with a smaller publishing house. They encouraged me to be hands on and contribute ideas and checked with me on the finished results. The cover photo is an old MFH publicity still. Other Lisa, I'm keeping the next book in Emerald Cove, but I definitely have plans for future books in the series to go elsewhere. Naples, Florida will be appearing. Under another name, of course! And with the Hammett tour San Francisco, I'll have to do one up here too! Tattoo, I'm not sure what the specific genre is, but it's in the same category as Tanya Huff, Laurel Hamilton, CHarlaine Harris. More on that later! Check my blog for future updates. :-) Yup, Rell, that’s what I think fiction is too! And funny, your first comment DID show up. It beat the spam filter!

And thanks Dana! I love Roman-a-clef guides like these to fictionalized real places. Recognizing the La Jolla sites in Emerald Cove was part of the fun of reading Murder For Hire. You're such a clever writer; I love the way you mix such funny characters and witty dialogue with such a well-crafted mystery. Thanks! I want to hear more about this siode project of yours - what did you call it? "A horror-romance-thriller"? Thanks Blaize! And thanks Dana!
