BLURB: The extraordinary comeback of Tylenol following the 1982 Tylenol murders in Chicago was underscored on February 7, 1986, when Johnson & Johnson received news that Tylenol had captured its largest share ever of the over-the-counter analgesic market. That night, in a home just outside New York City, a young woman took two Tylenol capsules and went to bed. She was found dead the next morning.

The woman’s Tylenol bottle was brought to the coroner’s office and opened by a toxicologist who immediately detected the telltale scent of bitter almonds—the aroma of cyanide. A frightening thought entered her mind: It’s Chicago all over again.

BLURB: Seattle senior citizen, DJ Kelly, and her three best friends and co-owners of the Waterfront Art Gallery, are detecting again. Despite an insistent internal voice that chides her for her risky adventures, DJ is hot on the trail––this time to help Darlene, a nurse, who is trying to find a young man who was brought into the emergency room yelling a lot of strange, seemingly meaningless terms, including “CCR5,”and then who disappeared––possibly to the Psych Ward. Darlene has received a cryptic phone call from the young man and doesn’t know where to turn. The four women fling themselves into the search, assisted by their old nemesis, Police Inspector Keohan, and the gallery’s handyman and king of malapropisms––Jerry. But their investigation suddenly takes a dangerous turn and the four ladies find themselves in serious jeopardy. Will they find the young man and unravel the mystery of his apparent mental breakdown before it’s too late? Is he insane? Drugged? Or just pretending? It’s all in the genes––and in this case, they’re “killer genes.”

Cover: “The Music Mage” by Sandra Miller

by | Oct 25, 2012 | ,

Author Sandra Miller contacted me about doing her cover for the first book of  The Ravanmark Saga, “The Music Mage”. Check out the sparkly new cover!

Coming soon to ebook and print!

BLURB:

Art is power,
Music is magic,
And no one is what they seem.

When the powerful and charismatic painter Lord Malrec brings newly-unemployed music teacher Alannys Gale to Ravanmark, it seems to be the answer to her prayers.

But Lord Malrec has plans for her…plans that may not be as noble as they appear.  A plot unfolds in darkness against the powerful and secretive royal family, and her newfound power may be the key to its execution.  But can she refuse?  And can she survive the consequences if she does?

In a world with magic whose true power is shrouded in the mists of time, and whose people are not always what they seem, Alannys must find the strength and the courage to harness her power and shape her own destiny as the Music Mage.

Unfortunately the title covers some of the detail work I added to the sword such as the music notes incorporated into the caged hilt. So here’s a close up:
