Seven-Layer Death <\/em>– This news is very sad, but \u00a0Lynn S just showed us Linda Palmer’s obituary.<\/p>\nI occasionally hear from Cozy Mystery readers who ask about the release dates of the above seven books. My responses back to them say (essentially) “I don’t know.” I know they are disappointed by not getting a letter back saying “That book will be out next month.” It’s always a disappointment for a fan of an author to find out the long-awaited book won’t be published quite yet or worse, ever.<\/p>\n
So each month I’ll continue to check for these mysteries. And hopefully, one of these days, I will get the very happy news that our wait is over.<\/p>\n
*** *** Here’s part of an update that I received from Janet, a very, very helpful librarian:<\/p>\n
Madelyn Alt: In Charm\u2019s Way \u2013 currently scheduled for publication November 11, 2013<\/p>\n
Nancy Fairbanks (aka Nancy Herndon): Blood Pudding \u2013 it says November 11, 2013, but it looks kind of iffy.<\/p>\n
Alice Kimberly: The Ghost and the Bogus Bestseller \u2013 currently scheduled for publication December 30, 2013<\/p>\n
Thanks, Janet! (As you can see, I didn’t post the ones you weren’t quite sure of.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
