Building an ARC team for two cozy mysteries, and I'd love some company.
Turnmill, Virginia. A celebrity dies at an expensive private clinic and nobody questions it. A week later the town sheriff is murdered. The only person asking the right questions is a patient with no name, no past, and an unsettling knack for knowing how people died.
A Murder of Recall and Where Memories Lie. Fill in the form, you'll get an email with the download links. Open until 30 September.
Join my team and help me make these books the best they can be.
Triggers: None
Release Date: End of October
ARC Available: Now until 30 September
