New Book: A Little Murder!

Rattlesnake Gal · 05-29-2009, 11:53 AM

I am halfway through the book too. If I could just stay away from Winnipesaukee.com I would finish it!

I've been working hard on finishing up the calendar along with some FF stuff. We no longer have a land line at the camp and that means limited access for me.

At first I was a little distracted by the little things that Cindy took artistic license with to make the book work. For example, I have never seen a boat anchor to fish, most of our fisher-people troll. I'm no longer distracted and am looking forward to finishing the book when we get back to the lake later.

Cindy will be at the Olde Bay Diner for a book signing event tomorrow from 8:00 am - 12:00 pm. Anyone going? You can get a very delicious breakfast while you're there. The raisin toast is fantastic!

Oh RG! You just hit my Lake passion! I plan some weekends around breakfast at the diner to have the toast! Not to mention the perfectly cooked omlete that goes with it!

Hi All,
I am finally a member of your great group. I spent some time reading your posts. I too am greatly saddened by the death of the woman in Wolfeboro. I hope her murder is solved quickly. Terrible that these things are happening more and more these days.

We had a great time at the diner on Saturday. Weather was perfect. The people soooo friendly. Margaret and Joel (and their families) at the diner treated us like family. One of the best things of the day was meeting Celia. She's been a fabulous advocate for my book. Not to mention she's given a great idea for a new plot.

We'll be going through Alton on the way to Meredith this coming weekend. I HAVE to try the raisin toast!
Best,
Cindy Davis

Welcome to the Forum Cindy! I'm thoroughly enjoying the book. Almost done and it has kept my interest greatly.

Rattlesnake Guy · 06-01-2009, 06:09 PM

I am taking this dictation from Celia as she does not have internet access at the lake right now.

It was a perfect morning and it was wonderful to meet Cindy and her husband. I am enjoying the first book so much I decided to pick up another one of her novels. We look forward to seeing Cindy at the forum fest on the Mount and I am confident everyone is going to enjoy meeting Cindy as well.

Thanks for the welcome. The diner staff were awesome. I believe Jean went home and e'd everyone she ever knew--and most of them came out to say hi.

FYI, I will be at Innisfree on Saturday from 2-4. Will stop at Olde Bay first though to try some of that raisin toast Celia raves about.

Rattlesnake Gal · 06-02-2009, 06:03 PM

I totally enjoyed A Little Murder! It is a fast paced book with lots of twists and turns. It is very cool to have local places that we know as part of the setting. The Olde Bay Diner, Georges and Downings to name a few.

I'm very glad that I picked up another book, which I am also enjoying very much. Already 1/3 of the way through it.

Cindy, please tell me we don't have long to wait for the next book in the Lake Winnipesaukee series!!!

hazelnut · 06-02-2009, 07:34 PM

RG,

I'm 2/3rds finished. What's the new one you got?

Rattlesnake Gal · 06-04-2009, 12:16 PM

I picked up Final Masquerade when I met Cindy at her Alton Bay book signing. I was enjoying A Little Murder so much that I took a chance on another title. It is not one in the Winnipesaukee series, but I am very much enjoying it at Lake Winnipesaukee!

Paige witnesses her fiancé murdering his best friend, and has no choice but to run. Before she takes off, she takes a priceless coin and 3/4 of a million dollars in dirty mob money. Her fiancé locates her again and again, which is making for a very exciting read.

Hopefully I can pick up her other titles at FF.

Cindy you had better get busy writing, it's not going to take me long to catch up with you!

Just want to jump in on this thread with a quick, very solid recommendation. Honestly, if you are looking for great, who dunnit, page turners, that you just can't put down, and read well into the night, you have to grab a couple of books by Harlen Coban.
He was recommended to me back in October. And now, 8 months later, I have read all 14 of his books. Perfect summer reading. Fast paced, and you just cannot put them down...I promise you.
In the event anyone takes me up on this idea, be sure to start out with one of his "stand alone" novels. He wrote a 9 book series about a sports agent named Myron Bolitar, and they are all great...in order, or not in order.
But you should start out with one of his stand alone books. "Tell No one", "The Woods", or "The Innocent".
Great Reads. Trust me. He will become your favorite author qucikly. No question.

Rattlesnake Gal · 06-04-2009, 12:57 PM

sa meredith, you should write to him and suggest Lake Winnipesaukee as a setting for one of his books!

OK you talked me into it!

I just ordered all three from Amazon. SO which one should I start with? Thanks for the recommendations.

I just finished A Little Murder last night. It was a fun read and it was enjoyable to actually know the setting of the book personally.

sa meredith · 06-04-2009, 03:54 PM

Start with "Tell No One", for sure.
See your PM box.

KellyG · 06-07-2009, 12:20 AM

This is perfect! I was just looking for another author whose books I can read.

As an FYI for everyone who likes to read, you might want to sign up at paperbackswap.com. You list your books and when someone wants a book, you get an email.

Thanks a lot sa meredith!!!!!

Here it is 11:40pm on a work night and I can not put down Harlen Coben's "Tell No One."

I got the shipment from Amazon today at 3:00pm started reading it at 6:00pm and I am about to finish it!!! Only 65 pages left.

This reminds me of college when I would cram for an exam the night before.

EZ-Pass · 06-01-2009, 01:15 PM

RG, how did Cindy do at the Olde Bay Diner for her book signing on the 30th. Haven't heard anything since the 29th. I had hoped to be able to attend, but unexpected company arrived right at breakfast time with 5 kids. Sorry I missed it. Yip in more ways than one.

Whoops, the thread from Cindy wasn't there when I posted. Must have been held up being a new member and all.
Glad to hear that it all went well
