MYSTERY IN PARADISE 13 Tales of Suspense is a
collection of twisted, heart-pumping tales of suspense in all its guises. This
anthology features 13 utterly unforgettable short stories by 13 of the hottest
authors to appear on Hawai’i’s literary scene.
The mysterious glint in the eye of the mynah bird posing on the
cover offers a promise of intrigue within. Honolulu’s Chinatown is the scene of
several diverse mysteries that include a New Year’s Eve traditional cozy; a
bloodless corpse; an off-duty HPD detective; and P.I. Jimmie Chan who takes on
a seemingly simple infidelity case that soon turns deadly.
From Cozy Mystery, Urban Noir, and Gumshoe, to Classic Crime, you
can’t go wrong. Why not let MYSTERY IN PARADISE 13 Tales of Suspense take you on a colorful trip around the islands
and show you a bit about Hawaiian culture, its people, and life in paradise?
Being
involved in compiling, formatting, and publishing this anthology in 2013 was a unique
and gratifying experience for me. Would I do it again? I’m still thinking.
What
is your experience with publishing?
Hello Gail,
ReplyDeleteWhile I have absolutely no experience in publishing, I am intrigued by the book you described, “Mystery in Paradise”. I’m going to be going on a 7 hour car trip tomorrow and will be the passenger. Hopefully there is a kindle edition.
Visiting from A-Z.
You ask what my experience is with publishing ... Well, my first book will come out in September from Merit Press. So exciting and stressful at the same time! ;)
ReplyDeleteYou put that book together? Wow, that's awesome! I would be so stressed. I've three books with Dancing Lemur Press and can't imagine doing one on my own.
ReplyDeleteStress is definitely part of the process, Margo and Alex. The end result is rewarding, however.
ReplyDeleteMahalo from another Gail! I love Hawaii, books, movies and food, so I know I'm going to enjoy poking around your blog! Just stopping by to say hello from the A-Z hop. Gail at Making Life An Art
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting, Gail! Hope you find some fun pictures and articles about Hawaii here. I had "Flat Mary" visiting from 2nd Grade in MN and plan to post her 12-day vacation to O'ahu. You might enjoy some of the pictures.
