Hi there, Yvonne. Came across your site through a Google alert for Val McDermid. Congrats on two novels and one on the way.I’m based in Wicklow and reviewing crime novels away to my heart’s content over at http://www.prelovedbooksblog.com. Always good to see I’m not alone in my fascination with murder and mayhem. ~ Deirdre
Hi Deirdre,
Thanks for your comment. I read some of your reviews. You sure do like your crime. Us crime fanatics must stick together. I will drop you an email, as I would love to have you review Passion Killer.
Yvonne.
Hi Yvonne. Apologies for the delay in replying. Got seriously snowed under in the day job and now have three books on my desk awaiting review. Keep in touch and I’d be more than happy to review Passion Killer.
Hi Deirdre. That would be great. Let me know when suits you to review and I will send you a copy. Believe me, I know all about being snowed under, so don’t worry about it.
Hi Yvonne
stumbled upon this by chance, 20yrs passed by, just thought id say Hi….from one mystic poet to another. 😊. As Tomás used to say, remember the Alamo, and the RTC.
Hi Fergus,
Great to be in touch again. Some memories will forever be etched in my mind – the meditation room, walks back from the beach discussing what the future may hold for all of us, trips in God’s bus. Mental times. I look forward to a reunion. Hope it happens. Carpe Diem, my friend.
