After all the parades, the turkey, football games, and of course the infamous cleanup of the kitchen, there’s nothing nicer than kicking back in a chair or taking a hot bath and having a good read. But what to read?

Well, the online streaming site Kanopy.com (which is free and gives you a credit every month to choose a movie from their vast collection) has declared November to be “Noir-vember”. So how about taking a trip back to New York City in 1948. Here, you can find the office of detective/vampire Rafael Jones, whose always up to taking on a new case. Well, Helen Krummenacker has just what you’re looking for, namely brand-new installment of the Forever Detective Series.

That’s right! Rafael is back and he’s not alone. His latest case has him facing off against a couple of familiar and powerful foes, and he’s going to need all the help he can get to stop them.

Thank goodness Rafael has a few familiar faces of his own such as Medium Brown (spiritualist), and Sgt. Michael Flannery (cop and former co-worker) to help out. But even they might be enough for this one.

Luckily for our hero, Sir Lynne Fox (the mysterious leader of the occult agency W. I. T. C. H. Hunters), has sent a couple of his agents straight to Rafael’s office door. But what kind of assistance can a monk and a cat offer our hero in dealing with a threat so big it threatens not only an entire people, but also their newly formed country as well?

You’ll have to wait and see as the countdown to Fangs-giving begins!

And since most of us have a lot to do between now and Thanksgiving, shopping, invitations, food prep, as well as getting ready for the holidays that follow, it’s quite easy to forget about ordering a copy of “Forever Chosen”, but here’s some good news. You can pre-order your e-copy of “Forever Chosen” right now, and it will be delivered and waiting for you on your Kindle device once all the Thanksgiving festivities have concluded.

Happy reading everyone!

Sometimes you get a sneak peek at the next book cover, but every once in a while, it gets a sneak peek at you…

I thought you might enjoy this little peek at the cover for “Forever Chosen” the next installment of the Forever Detective Series. In “Forever Chosen” will bring back a number of familiar faces, both friends and foes, as well as a couple of new faces (unless you’ve been reading “W. I. T. C. H. Hunters Forever” which is also available in both e-book and paperback formats).

When it comes to book covers, I work closely with Allan to come up with the images, going so far as to actually doing some of the artwork in the final product along with him. Allan often turns to me to ask what kind of subject matter I want to see used in the image. I’ve like to aim for covers with a bit of a ‘vintage feel’. Specifically, I want a cover that has a bit of a nostalgic feel to it. One that takes you back to the days of the old pulp magazines that once covered the walls of a newspaper stand. And between the two of us, I like to think we achieve that effect. I hope you agree and enjoy the images that we come up with.

I also insist that any image that goes on the cover, is a scene or a mix of events that actually happen in the story itself. Or as in the case of “Forever Festive” an image that captures the spirit of the story within the book. Currently, Allan is working on the cover of “Forever Chosen” (as displayed at the top of this entry) and once he has it finished, he’ll be putting the rest of the book into the correct format for publishing. In the meantime, we’ll be preparing a book trailer for you, at which time he’ll start to work on the audio version of the book. So stay tuned to this blog for more news and giveaways coming soon…

In the meantime, I have another audio chapter from “Forever Festive” for you to enjoy.
