I thought I would make this “public” for all of you who may want to participate. On Thursday, February 20, I asked for help to identify an author for Tessa. It turns out that the author Tessa was looking for is Alice Duncan. Yesterday we heard from Alice Duncan with this great give-away she has going. I thought several of you might want to participate, so here is the information:
Thanks for looking for my books! I’m giving the first one (Strong Spirits) in audio this month, if you’d like to enter my contest. I have about 20 copies to give to folks, so if you’re interested, just email me at alice@aliceduncan.net
Thanks!
Good luck!
Penny says
AND of course, I just finished that one on my Nook! Ah, well! It was good – cute and cozy.
Jackie J. Griffey says
Alice: I think I’m the one who added you to this blog when I didn’t find you and Daisy series LOL. Anyway, since I’ve read them I can strongly recommend them and this great group. I’ve added to my ‘favorite authors’ list and am spreading the word about all the good cozies and the blog. I look forward to it every morning.

Jackie, then I’m glad you did!
Alice Duncan says
Thanks, Jackie! I didn’t even know about this blog (hanging head in shame) until somebody told me folks were looking for the Daisy books here.

Penny, thanks for letting us know you enjoyed Alice Duncan’s first mystery in her series. I think that a lot of us rely on other Cozy Mystery readers when we determine whether to begin reading an author, or not.
Sheila says
I also have the Alice Duncan’s Daisy Gumm series on my Nook. The price was right at BN so I bought all 6 ($3.49/ebook). Good luck to those who enter the contest.

Sheila, I just checked and see that Alice Duncan’s Daisy Gumm Kindles are also $3.49. I just love these Kindle/Nook prices!
Cathy says
I can’t wait to read this, new to me, series!
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Cathy, it does look good, doesn’t it?
Kimmie says
That is very nice of her to drop by like that! Awesome treat for those that have not yet read her 1st in the Daisy Series! I have all 6, and awaiting #7 coming in March! 🙂
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Kimmie, it is nice when authors stop by.
Susan Sundwall says
Thanks so much for the heads up on this Danna! And you too, Alice. =0)
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Susan Sundwall, you’re welcome.
Sue K. says
She is my favorite cozy author! And a wonderful person, as well. I think you will discover a new favorite in her books.
Jackie J. Griffey says
Kimmie and all: I think Alice is putting them on audio.com too and a lot of libraries have the audios now since readers have told me they can get them there, plug them in and listen to them as they do their housework so it’s a good thing for all of us. The libraries here in Arkansas (my home state) are writer friendly and appreciated. I’m a library fan too, ever since Nancy Drew LOL….

Sue K, thanks for letting us know how much you enjoy reading Alice Duncan’s mysteries.
Alice Duncan says
Thanks, Sue! Sue’s the one who told me about the Cozy Mystery Blog, bless her.
Angela McL says
How nice of this author! I am looking forward to reading these books. I had already added them to my goodreads. I love this time period.
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Angela McL, I enjoy period piece mysteries as well. (Of course, some of my favorite authors actually wrote during the times I like to read about! An example of this would be Agatha Christie.)
Jackie J. Griffey says
Angela: I’m glad to see people reading Alice’s series, I met her when we were both working for Five Star Cengage and she’s a doll as well as a great writer. She’s now getting them out as audios too. I’m looking forward to the new one too. 😎
Cyn says
I went to Alice’s website and clicked on R.I.P. She has photos of her rescue dogs and readers pets (much loved pets I must add) that are deceased. I was so touched since my dog , Bette Davis died in October. I sent her a photo and told her about Bette and she posted it on her site. What a nice woman! And yes, I’ll be getting another rescue dog. I do think it’s debatable who does the rescuing! Bette rescued us! Alice has a great website. Thanks for posting it for us!
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Cyn, I just went to Alice Duncan’s R.I.P. page and found the picture of your sweet Bette Davis. I’m glad to see you are thinking of rescuing another rescue dog, who in fact rescued you. My husband and I keep talking about getting a new addition for our family, but each time we think it’s time, we decide we aren’t quite sure if we are ready yet. (And it’s been years since Sprite left us.)
As I scrolled down the page, I was reminded of how much love our pets give us. Thank you for telling us about this part of Alice Duncan’s site.
Steph says
I recently purchased the Kindle book. I am especially looking forward to reading it after reading some of the lovely comments.
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Steph, it looks like you have a bit of mystery reading to do!
