Lights... Camera... and Action!

Flipped Out, Do It Yourself mystery #5, is now in stores everywhere, and downloadable for any number of e-reader devices from any number of websites. Go forth, buy, read, and enjoy. It’s a pretty good book, if I do say so myself. Here’s the blurb Berkley put on the back cover:

Avery and her hunky handyman boyfriend Derek Ellis are renovating another house in Waterfield, Maine. But it’s not just any house. It belongs to local news anchor Tony “the Tiger” Micelli—and it’s a quaint cottage with limitless possibilities. E ven more exciting is that the makeover is going to be filmed as part of a home renovation TV show.

Unfortunately the road to cable TV fame is a bumpy one: this DIY spins into a DOA when Tony’s corpse is found at the cottage, flat on his back and not from natural causes. Turns out there were a few people who wanted Tony dead, and that the murderer might have his sights set on other Waterfield residents. That means it’s up to Avery to nail the killer. Before someone yells “Cut!” and it’s all over.

Pretty cool, huh?

I’ve also sent the manuscript for the sixth DIY mystery to my editor. It doesn’t have a release date or a title yet, but they’re both coming. So yes, Avery carries on into 2012.
