Good News Report

Please join me in congratulating the following KOD-members, who have good news to share:

Anna Taylor Sweringen has received a request for a full manuscript from the Wild Rose Press for her novella, A WOMAN WHO AIN’T BEEN ASKED.

Kathleen Mix’s SINS OF HER FATHER, a new RS from Entangled Publishing Select Suspense, was released last week.

Faith Rochambeau is horrified to learn she was conceived during a rape. She’s determined to make her biological father, Victor Telemann, pay for his crimes. Using her computer skills to dig into his life, she searches for the powerful man’s Achilles Heel and a way to extract retribution. She’ll do whatever it takes to get a conviction, even it if means infiltrating his Fortune 500 company.

She fails to plan on falling in love with her father’s smooth-talking stepson, Kent Telemann, who suspects she is a corporate spy. Faith is drawn to Kent, even though she’s not sure she can trust him. If her heart is wrong, he can put her life in danger.

Meanwhile, her father is playing a lethal game he’s determined to win.

The cover is awesome. Check it out at http://www.kathleenmix.com

From Larissa Reinhart:

The preorder for THE BODY IN THE LANDSCAPE, Cherry Tucker Mystery #5, went live this week. ARCs will available on NetGalley shortly for any reviewers interested, otherwise contact Larissa if you want to do a review.

Also, she’s having a launch party on Facebook with other Henery Press authors on Tuesday, December 15th. Any and all are invited from 7 pm – 12 am EST. Giveaways & game galore from 18 Henery Press authors.

Here’s the quickie blurb:

Georgia artist Cherry Tucker’s sassy spitfire reputation has her in trouble back home, so when invited to paint the winning portrait for Big Rack Lodge’s Hogzilla hunt contest, it seems like a paid vacation. But when woodland painting uncovers a body, Cherry fears the hunting party is prey for a vengeful stalker with her nosing placing her in their crosshairs.

Larissa says, “Thanks so much for all the KOD support of the series! I’m working on #6 now.”

And Terry Odell‘s short story collection, SEEING RED, is a finalist in Killer Nashville’s Silver Falchion award. The others in the category include CJ Box, Craig Johnson, Jeffery Deaver and Joyce Carol Oates. It’s an “attendees vote for the winner” contest during the Killer Nashville conference the last weekend in October. Terry doubts the collection will get farther than where it is now, but says she’ll take “Silver Falchion Finalist” any time!

And that’s all we’ve got this week. Have a good weekend!
