One Flew Over the Chow-Chow’s Nest is Live!!

June 4, 2021 / / 0 Comments

Woot!! The newest Marcia Banks and Buddy book is now live in ebook format.

Doing my happy dance!

Check it out!!!

One Flew Over the Chow-Chow’s Nest, Book #11

The world moves toward normal, but Marcia’s life is rarely “normal”…

When newly vaccinated Marcia Banks calls to finally schedule the human phase of training with her Air Force pilot client—the soon-to-be owner of a Chow-Husky service dog named Bear—she’s informed that the veteran has been in a private psychiatric hospital for months, with no one allowed to visit due to Covid.

Through her neighbor’s daughter, Sybil—a traveling nurse who has worked at the hospital—Marcia receives a message from the pilot implying he’s being held against his will. Should she believe him, or is he being paranoid?

Then suddenly he’s discharged, only to have his private plane crash in a fiery ball two days later. Convinced the crash is no coincidence, Marcia attempts to discover how her veteran client became the target of a murderer.

What she uncovers looks suspiciously like a scheme to defraud the Veterans’ Administration. But who is behind it…and did they sabotage her client’s plane? Or did the saboteur have a more personal motive?

And just how determined are they to silence Marcia and Sybil?

ONLY $2.99 for a few more days! Then it goes up to $4.99

AVAILABLE on:  AMAZON ~ APPLE ~ KOBO ~ NOOK ~ GOOGLE PLAY

And yes, I’m working on getting the paperback version out as well.

Also, working on putting together more collections and getting all the Buddy books out in audio eventually.

So stay tuned, Folks!!

 

A New Book, A Boxed Set and More Audio Books!

May 22, 2021 / / 0 Comments

Hey folks,

I’ve been pretty busy the last few weeks getting some goodies ready for you.

First, I’ve put together a collection of the first 4 ebooks in the Marcia Banks and Buddy series. Check it out HERE!

Just $6.99  ~~  A $3 savings over the individual book prices!

I’ll be doing more collections in that series soon.

~

And I have 2 new audio books out in that series, with the most wonderful narrator ever.

Amy Deuchler absolutely brings Marcia and the gang to life!!

Check out the links for The Call of The Woof audio book HERE.

And for A Mayfair Christmas Carol audio book HERE.

I had hoped to get them out before Christmas of 2020, but then the pandemic happened.

Better late than never!

And last but certainly not least, there is a brand new release coming up in the Marcia and Buddy series. Available for Preorder now!

This book was inspired, in part, by the pandemic, and it is the backdrop of the story.

But I have tried to focus mainly on the hope, optimism and sense of relief of the Spring of 2021, as the pandemic has eased up, here in the U.S. at least.

When all of that is done, I’ll be turning my attention to my newest endeavor, Book 1 in a police procedural series. I’m about 20% of the way into the first draft. I’ll post an excerpt soon.

Thanks for your support!

Woohoo!! The next Marcia and Buddy book is here! (Available for Preorder)

My Funny Mayfair Valentine, A Marcia Banks and Buddy Mystery, #10

A newcomer to Mayfair charms the socks off of Susanna Mayfair, the sheltered niece of the town’s elderly matriarch. In a panic, the aunt turns to service dog trainer Marcia Banks to dig into the man’s past.

What Marcia finds, with her detective husband Will’s help, is disturbing—a trail of broken hearts and outstanding warrants. But when the older gentleman is arrested, he claims it’s a case of mistaken identity.

While Will attempts to untangle the truth and Susanna struggles with her feelings, Marcia is worried about her friend’s mental health, unaware that Susanna may be in physical danger as well. Will Marcia figure it out in time to protect Susanna…and herself?

Lord of the Fleas book cover

Lord of the Fleas, A Marcia Banks and Buddy Mystery, #9

What could be more innocent than a country flea market?

When service dog trainer Marcia Banks takes up temporary residence with her best friend in Williston, Florida, her goals are simple: spoil her toddler godchildren and train her newest dog’s veteran owner, a vendor at a local flea market.

Ha, the universe has other plans. When the owner of the flea market is found dead and her client is a prime suspect, she discovers that nothing is as it seems—from the flea market owner himself, to the ornate dragonhead cane he gave to her client, to the beautiful but not very bright young woman whom her client has a crush on.

The only true innocent in the bunch seems to be her guileless client. But when he shares a confidence that puts her in a double bind with local law enforcement, she’s not sure she can even trust him.

Despite her promises to her new husband that she won’t “poke around” in the investigation, the only way out of her no-win dilemma seems to be to find the real killer herself.

The flea market, however, is hiding more secrets, and at least one of them could be deadly.

Available at these retailers ~ $2.99 through May 30th, goes up to $4.99 after that…

The Sound and The Furry Is Live!!

July 2, 2019 / / 2 Comments

The Sound and The Furry, A Marcia Banks and Buddy Cozy Mystery #7 is now Live!

The Sound and The Furry book cover

A tropical paradise turns deadly.

Service dog trainer Marcia Banks had thought it was the perfect arrangement—stay on her client’s private Gulf-coast island and get the human phase of the training done more quickly, while enjoying a much-needed break from the chaos of house renovations back home.

This certainly wasn’t the tranquil getaway she’d envisioned, however. Two resident ghosts, a sour-puss housekeeper and bearing witness to her client’s shaky marriage are bad enough. But within days, she’s discovered even deeper and darker layers of dysfunction.

Via emails and static-filled phone calls, fiancé Will Haines convinces her to get herself and her dog Buddy out of there, but before Marcia can accomplish this, a late-season hurricane abruptly changes course and strands them on the island… with a murderer.

Just $2.99 for a limited time, so grab yours today!!

Police Protection is LIVE!!!

May 24, 2019 / / 0 Comments

Hey folks,

Police Protection, #10 in the Kate Huntington Mysteries, is now live on all major ebook retailers!!

A story ripped from real-life headlines! A police detective is found in an alley standing over the body of an unarmed African-American boy. Gun in hand and groggy from a concussion, he has no memory of what happened.

To the police department’s I.A. division, it’s a slam-dunk. But various forces push psychotherapist Kate Huntington and her P.I. husband to investigate behind the scenes, and what they find doesn’t add up. Why did the boy’s oldest brother disappear on the same day? And did the third brother, who’s on the autism spectrum and nonverbal, witness something relevant?

For Kate, the case becomes personal as she connects with the grieving mother, whose dead son was the same age as her Billy. Then a series of seemingly unrelated events emerges as a pattern of intentional obstruction of their investigation, and Kate and Skip conclude two things.

Whatever happened in that alley, it was more than just a bad shoot by a stressed-out cop. And while the answers may come from unexpected sources, they had better find them soon… before another life is lost.

 

 

WOOHOO!! I am doing my happy dance! 😀
