I'm very pleased to announce that my newest book -- the seventh in my Double V Mysteries series, is going to be published soon!
On this adventure, Juliet and Elmer take on a case tracking an about-to-be-released prisoner to recover the money he stole and hid years before -- but as usual, nothing is as it seems, there are more questions than answers, and danger increases with every twist and turn. It's the Christmas season, 1951, and our intrepid duo, unlike Santa Claus, has a little trouble determining for sure who is naughty and who is nice.
The setting for this story is Chicopee, Massachusetts. But there's a twist to that as well, which you'll see in weeks to come. The particular part of town where the story takes place is Chicopee Falls. In 1951, that village was completely different than it is now, because in the late 1960s and early 1970s, most of it was demolished in an urban renewal project. To write this book, I had to recreate not only a time, but a place that no longer exists. All of the books in this series are a form of time-travel. This one, The Little Engine That Killed, is especially so.
I'll let you know more in weeks to come. For now, I hope you enjoy a peek at the cover above.
