Book unboxing: Death in Douglas Glade

Two big ol’ boxes landed on my doorstep, both full of books! Why so many? To be sure I have enough for the Death in Douglas Glade book launch event. So, please come along or I’ll have to lug them all home again!

For more details about the book launch or the book itself, scroll on down. But first, lets get a look at the books!

Death in Douglas Glade

Death in Douglas Glade by G B Ralph. Book cover image and blurb.

A scenic walk in nature isn’t Addison Harper’s idea of a good time, but with Sergeant Jake Murphy leading the way, he’s willing to give it a go.

After a picnic as delicious as his date, things are really looking up – that is, until Addison stumbles over something in the undergrowth. Bad news: it’s a dead body. Worse news: it’s his ex. And the last time they saw each other, a room full of people witnessed Addison wish him dead.

He should never have strayed so far from the path…
