It's out! At last! Levels of Deception is out on Smashwords and will follow shortly on Amazon, B&N, Apple and other e-book retailers. The print version is in process, and should be available in a couple of weeks. I'll be sure to let you know.
In truth, it's been completed for a while. The final edits took some time, but now it's all done. Here's the back cover blurb:
Thea isn't supposed to obsess about a murder in the basement of Seattle's Burke Museum, even though the victim was her absent boyfriend Paul's colleague -- even though her gut screams at her to pay attention. So when the police connect Paul to thefts at the museum and the murder, despite his being two states away on a dig, Thea secretly launches her own investigation to clear him. Paul's stubborn refusal to give her any information doesn't slow her down, but an attempt on her life does. Coerced into running to Paul's paleontology dig in Montana for safety, what she finds there is far from a refuge. The levels of deception are more personal and extend farther than she could have imagined. The price of her pursuit of truth will be blood.
You can download about 120 pages for FREE from Smashwords, or the entire book for $2.99. Amazon will have it for the same price before the weekend is out, and you can download samples from them, too.
Now, ladies and gents, I need your help. My never ending marketing and promotion lessons have taught me that it takes a village to make a book successful. My success goal for Levels Of Deception is to make it into the top 10 of Amazon's Hot New Release List -- a slightly loftier perch than Death By A Dark Horse. To accomplish this I will need reviews from readers as well as sales. If you like my books, I would appreciate a short review on Smashwords and/or Amazon. My sales goal is 50 books a day! Sound outrageous? It's not, really. But to reach that goal people have to know the book is available. That's where I need your help to spread the word. Only a team effort works!
I'll be reporting back on a regular basis. Thank you all for your help!
Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteWow! Congrats. Sounds great!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jordan and Jeanne! Just checked in on Amazon and LOD should appear on their site by tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! That is great news.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Regina! I keep waiting for Levels Of Deception to be accessible on Amazon, but so far we're in a holding pattern. Perhaps by morning...! Smashwords did get it up right away, though! Yay! Print book will be coming along soon.
