News Flash: Silver Rush book #8 has a title!

 Taking a break from Slang-o-rama to announce some bookish news: the eighth book in my Silver Rush historical mystery series has a title!

THE SECRET IN THE WALL

Location: Bodie, California

It's early 1882 in San Francisco, and Inez Stannert has forged a partnership to purchase an abandoned house that needs work, but has "good bones." Renovations begin, and, uh-oh, what do they find lurking in the darkness and the shadows, behind the weathered planks? I'm not telling, because...

... it's a secret. 😉

Hello Liz, Thank you!

Ann Parker said...

Hi Camille!
I thought it appropriately mysterious... :-)

Teresa Blair said...

Can't wait to buy my copy and start reading! Hopefully Inez is moving back to Leadville soon!!!! :-)

Priscilla said...

Yay! I need an Inez!

Jeanne said...

Can't wait to read it. I have culled some of my mysteries so there is room on the shelf next to your other books.

You got me at "Secret" - can't wait to read.

Ooooh. Sounds great!

Walls always seem to have the most interesting stuff.

Ann Parker said...

Hi Teresa! Ah, Leadville does cross Inez's mind more than once in THE SECRET IN THE WALL (and certainly lingers in my mind as well. :-) ). Hope you enjoy the book, once it hits the streets!

Ann Parker said...

Hello Priscilla! She's a'coming round the corner. It's a bit of a corner, so you'll need to be patient. ;-)

Hi Jeanne!
Oooooh, I'm impressed you've gone through your bookshelves, which is something I should do as well. Thank you for saving a spot for the next Inez!

Dear "Unknown,"
I hope you enjoy it, when you get a chance to read it!

Hello (Almaden) Mike!
It's true. Lots of interesting things in walls. Particularly in old structures!
