The first 10 Daisy books have been sold to a Polish publisher. Can't wait to see how Daisy looks in Polish!

Daisy in Polish is Stokrotka. I can't help hoping they don't translate her name--and wondering how they'll pronounce Dalrymple!

Daisy at Downton Abbey!?!

Barnes & Noble Downton Abbey promo starts Jan 8th and my editor confirms  Anthem for Doomed Youth will be part of it. They've had to reprint... :-D







However, B&N seem to be having trouble getting their act together. If you happen to be near a store, I'd appreciate a news bulletin: location of store, is there a DA display, is Anthem in it, is Anthem elsewhere in the store.  (Comment here, or use the contact form or email address on the Home page.)

Seattle Mystery Bookshop: Trillian, me, a reader's Cairn puppy named TEAZLE after Eleanor's Westie in the Cornish Mysteries!
The best news about the new Cornish Mystery is that it's been picked by USA TODAY among
Books: New and Noteworthy

5. The Valley of the Shadow by Carola Dunn (Minotaur, fiction)

What it's about: In this "Cornish Mystery," Eleanor Trewynn discovers a half-drowned Indian man on the Cornwall coast, which leads to the sordid world of refugee smuggling.

The buzz: Independent booksellers are fans and have chosen Valley as a December Indie Next pick. "Dunn gives us a thoroughly enjoyable, cozy suspense novel — one with a social conscience," says Carol Schneck Varner of Schuler Books & Music in Okemos, MI.
