Book launch: Death in Douglas Glade

You're invited to a book launch. Book cover image: Death in Douglas Glade by G B Ralph.

Would you believe it’s been four weeks since the ebook release of Death in Douglas Glade? Now it’s time to launch the paperback i.e. a real, physical, hold-in-your-hands, flip-through-the-pages book!

How exciting is this? For the previous books, we’ve had friends over to the house for dinner and drinks to celebrate publication, but have never done something so public. However, with much enthusiasm and encouragement from the teams at Bruce McKenzie Booksellers and Palmerston North City Library, we will be doing just that!

Title: You're invited to a book launch. Book cover image: Death in Douglas Glade by G B Ralph. Who? G B Ralph chatting with Bing Turkby. What? Refreshments. A chat about writing, books, crime fiction, publishing, whatever! Book sales and signing. Where? Palmerston North Central Library mezzanine floor / main entrance. When? 6:30pm, Thursday 21 November 2024. Why? To celebrate the launch of G B Ralph’s latest book: Death in Douglas Glade! Free event, all welcome. Supported by Palmerston North City Library and Bruce McKenzie Booksellers.

At 6:30pm on Thursday 21 November 2024 (i.e. three weeks away!) we’ll be celebrating the paperback release of Death in Douglas Glade with wines and snacks at the library, followed by bookish chats between me and author / musician / librarian / MC Bing Turkby, then a chance to buy books (only if you want to!) and book signing.

I hope to see you there! And if you have friends, family, book clubs, colleagues, librarians, or anyone else you think you might be interested, please pass on the details – it’d be great to have a room full of friendly faces!

Not in NZ?

The paperback has quietly slinked its way onto Amazon and will filter out to a bunch of other online retailers soon. I’m letting you know quietly here, but I haven’t announced it because I haven’t even received my copies yet!
