I am a new member to this site and find it very informative. Great site! I am a writer and have just published my first murder mystery---JUNE GLOOM. The setting for the book is in the central coast of California where the June gloom blankets the coast each summer. Would love feedback on my book as I am currently working on a second mystery and all help is appreciated. I am an avid reader and the suggestions and reviews on this site are wonderful.
June Gloom is available on B&N and on my website www.bevbrannon.com
Hi Bev - Welcome to the Mystery Forum!
Here's B&N's blurb for Bev's book:
Overview
Millie O'Donnell slowly jogs uphill until she reaches her favorite rock, where each day she stops to rest. Then, in the solitude of the early morning, the waves crashing on the shore below, she lets her cherished memories of her young husband heal her broken heart. Suddenly, she notices a pile of trash. An old blanket...blonde hair spilling from one end.
As June gloom shrouds the small college town on the central coast of California, two more bodies wrapped in blankets are found near Millie. With the third body left practically in Millie's backyard, the media implies she's a suspect. When all viable leads direct back to Millie, Detective Jake Mitchell's "cop intuition" says she's not a suspect but a victim, and he protects her from the attacks as he tries to rein in his new emotions.
Detective Jake Mitchell's investigation leads to the college the victims attended; to the flea market where similar blankets are sold; to a rape victim found barely alive; and finally to a murderer spiraling out of control.
