- Et donc ? Cela vous dit quelque chose ? Parce qu’à moi, oui.
- Tiens. Et cela vous raconte quoi ?

#MurderEveryMonday Orange Cover

For today’s #MurderEveryMonday I’m reusing an old photo of the crime fiction novel with the most orange cover I have. This is the ninth volume in the Adam Dalgliesh series and I think I like it when I read it.

To know more about the hashtag, check Kate’s blog.

To compensate the reused photo, I’m also sharing a small video about the non-fiction book “Agatha Christie A Reader’s Companion” (cover also orangey).

Wagstaff and Poole go through Christie’s works and give us context and background about her novels, but what I like the most are the descriptions of the fist editions, the dust-jackets, the size, the ads, the maps included in the books, the spines, etc.)

Consecrated Ground

Here’s the book trailer, specifically designed to feature the Kickstarter, for my noir novel, Consecrated Ground. This is the novel that I mentioned on Tuesday, the one that the original editor slapped an offensive title on (which stuck for nearly two decades). I’m using the original title. This novel is historical through and through, although, like […]…
