ALWAYS WATCHING

My new novel, ALWAYS WATCHING, will be out June 18! ( US and Canada.) This year I'm doing something new and will be posting pictures from important scenes along with a line or two directly from the novel. I had a lot of fun tromping about Shawnigan Lake and Victoria with my friend, Tamara, from Poppy Photography, and taking photos. I think it will give you a great first look into the book. Stay tuned for the first picture tomorrow!
