On January 14, 2013, in Uncategorized, WIP, by rsguthrie

  I’m trying something a little new here—I’ve just started my third book in the James Pruett Mystery Series that began with Blood Land.

I have the paperback version of Dark Prairies done and I #ammarketing like crazy, so yesterday I started back in on the third Detective Bobby Mac book Reckoning. I’m really excited about this book.
