Hi Reader!

It's my birthday, and to celebrate, I'm giving a present to you!

Peril on the Peninsula and Revenge in the Rockies are free today!

Get your e-books and share with anyone you think would love these engaging and fun mysteries (not an oxymoron, I swear!).

Also, I'm sending Midwest State Park Adventures to the printers today, right on schedule. Reserve yours now if you'd like an autographed copy. It'll ship the week of 5/22.

Happy Reading!
