Giveaway the First
|July 30, 2013|
[Giveaway closed now, thanks for reading!]
To celebrate the publication of The Bones of Paris in six weeks, we are doing three giveaways. Today is the first.
I have four copies of the previous Stuyvesant & Grey adventure, Touchstone, in the UK hardback edition published by Poisoned Pen Press some years ago. They’re signed, they’re very beautiful, and they’re yours for the trying.
Simply make a comment on this blog post (don’t worry if it takes a while to appear–I have to approve new posters, but I promise I will) and we’ll do a random drawing for one of the four copies. US, UK, or UZbekistan, doesn’t matter.
Bonne chance!
Posted in Giveaways, The Bones of Paris
Good luck, Everyone!
I so admire that shelf of books…..
😉
I can’t wait to read this!
I too suffer from shelf envy! I have too many books and too few book shelves, but I can always find room for one more!
I’m so looking forward to the release of The Bones of Paris, and had already planned to reread Touchstone this month.
Paris is on my mind. My son and his wife leave this weekend for that beautiful city on their long-awaited and greatly-earned honeymoon. She has a background in French literature, although she now teaches math to middle-schoolers in the Bronx (and loves it.) I’m going to send her a link to your Pinterest page; I think she’ll enjoy it.
As for myself, I look forward to opening “Bones” with some good croissant, strong coffee (wine?) and Edith Piaf.
I am getting close to the end of what I am reading now and starting to get twitchy I haven’t picked out the next book to read. This could solve that problem!
Am working my way through your Russell and Holmes novels….so thrilled to have found you!
“[T]rying” is right! I might start in possession of it, but your books always end up making the rounds to and through my friends and family!
Can’t wait for Bones to come out!!
Love all your work. Looking forward to reading more.
This is one ol’ country boy who is trying to be patient while waiting for ‘The Bones of Paris’, but I really need a new Mr. & Mrs. Holmes fix.
What’s going on in my head right now: I really shouldn’t enter a contest to win a book. I’m supposed to begetting rid of books in preparation for a move from DC to Florida! But this is LRK. Ok, OK, just don’t win, for God’s sake.
I already love your Mary Russell series, so I am looking forward to trying this one. Thanks.
Having similar thoughts to Karen- I don’t NEED new books…but it’s LRK! I don’t own Touchstone and would dearly love to 🙂 Thanks for the giveaway!
I enjoy all of your work so much. Help make my bibliophile brother jealous, and pick me to win a signed hv copy of one of your books!
Would love to win it – downside? Once I own a book in a series, I start wanting them all rather than just reading from library – and very little shelf space remaining
Touchstone was a great tale, looking forward to Bones of Paris.
Now who wouldn’t be tempted by this? I have been reading LRK books since I was 11 and moving from NYC to London in 1997. A family friend introduced me to Mary Russell and England. It was the best gift I ever received. Thank you Laurie for your books and keep them coming!
I am truly a sucker for a chance at a beautiful book!!
I’m working out in the pouring rain – would pprefer to be perusing the books!
I love the Mary Russell books, but I have not read any of Laurie’s other books….would love to read them!
I have every Mary Russell you’ve written so far. Can’t wait for the next one.
that would be my first Stuyvesant & Grey adventure but maybe the beginning of a new addiction 😀
I used to have a shelf like that, running along the ceiling! It held my collection of Travis McGee and my collection of Agatha Christie!
I can’t wait for Bones of Paris, and I’m sure Touchstone would be a great read, too!
Looking forward to the new and catching up with the old.
I love the Mary Russell books, especially. They were a wonderful discovery.
I’m a huge fan! Looking forward to reading your next!
I’m trying.
I haven’t read this series but have wanted to. I’m crazy about the Mary Russell series and have loaned my copies to many friends. They don’t always come back…
I love your books in the car, in my office, in the bath! I’m so happy to have found your works, which never fail to satisfy my need for exciting reading.
I love the Russel books so much, I have to read everything else you’ve written.
Loved Touchstone and will read it again before Bones of Paris.
I love _Touchstone_ and would love to have anything you signed, but this in particular sounds like a beautiful copy. Russell and Holmes have my heart, but I’d also love to see another installment in any of your wonderful stories.
I’m looking forward to “The Bones of Paris!” What a great setting for a novel. “Locked Rooms” is my favorite Mary Russell.
I would love to read another of Laurie’s books!
Can’t wait to read the newest!!
Merci beaucoup!
Can’t wait to read the newest!!!
I have re-read the Mary Russell and Holmes series through four times-
Looking forward to reading and re-reading Stuyvesant again and again too.
Appreciate the level of detail in your choice of words – appropriate to time and place.
Always wishing you the best-
How exciting! Looking forward to your new book.
Good luck everyone!!!!
I can’t wait to read Bones. I read Touchstone in preparation for this upcoming release (I started as a Mary Russell fan), and absolutely loved it. I would love to get my hands on a copy.
I am eagerly awaiting the release of The Bones of Paris. I will need to refresh my memory and reread Touchstone.
So happy you are in our universe, Laurie! What delight you bring.
Great idea for adding more book space. I have shelves covering all the walls and beneath the windows, but not above the windows. It would be fantastic to add the “give-away” books to my collection. Looking forward to reading your new book!
Touchstone is one book of yours I have not read ( how embarrassing to admit) . If I do not win the giveaway, I will be sure to find my own copy for enjoyment. Also, like the over the windows shelf for books…a terrific space-saving idea.
Thank you for the giveaway!! Can’t wait for Bones of Paris!
The excerpt is great fun – can’t wait to read the rest
One of the few LRK books I haven’t yet read. I should probably do that before the new one comes out 🙂
How sweet it would be to win a Laura King book, yes? Yes. Definitely yes.
Your books have become my absolute favorites, Laurie! I can’t wait for the newest to arrive!
Years ago I was given a Sony ereader which I had to appear like a cad and return because I happen to love the feel of paper and the sensation of turning a page. My library sits on shelves much like your library and I would be honored to have another of your books grace those shelves. Always a pleasure to see you releasing a new book.
I am so very happy to have these guys back for another adventure!
Thanks for the wonderful writing you do, Laurie. I enjoy it so much! I am looking forward to reading Bones of Paris!
One random chance, coming up! 🙂
I, too, lack shelf space. I have taken to cleaning out and donating my books in preparation for a move. But there are those books I will keep forever and never part with, starting with any by LRK. A UK edition of Touchstone would be a welcome addition.
It would be great to win one of your books, Ma’am!
For a variety of complicated reasons, I am just now reading Garment of Shadows. This makes me very happy! I am looking forward to Bones of Paris. I have not read Touchstone and would live to. Thank you for all of these amazing experiences!
Haven’t read Touchstone yet – I would love a copy!
I’m so excited for this! I love Touchstone!
Laurie, I have read every book you have written, and always eagerly await the next one. I like the way you incorporate historical elements into the novels, and how plot twists keep me guessing to the end of the book. I am looking forward to reading Bones of Paris.
This is very exciting! I could use a book to read that isn’t a textbook! 🙂
Anticipation is half the fun……
I hope I win! I already have Touchstones on preorder.
Anticipation is half the fun….
Shelves: the more, the better to keep all the good books, my friends! I would love to get your new book for free, to add to my collection of great books!
Thanks!
Luminita!
I have read and loved all of your books. I also love reading your blog entries and am eagerly anticipating the publication of your new book.
Love King’s writing!
I would love an autographed copy of “Touchstone”. I shan’t hold my breath because I am gambling now.
My public library will be the winner if I win because it will get my paperback immediately.
Thank you, Laurie, for keeping Sherlock alive for me. I fell in love with him in 1964 in high school, and never looked back. His relationship with Miss Russell is so believable. I was thrilled when i traveled to London, found my hotel on Russell Square, (The Penn Club). If ever your books are filmed, I would hope you can get Benedict Cumberbatch as your Sherlock.
Just this morning I was complaining to my room mate about how we have too many books, and we really need to get rid of some. Oh well!
I have been in love with Ms. King since The Beekeeper’s Apprentice.
with only about 300 miles between Paris and I, imma take this novel with me to Paris and read it in the park under the Eiffel Tour 🙂
Love your work. Have all your books. Would love another. Regardless, I hope The Bones of Paris is a huge success.
I love your Mary Russell books and am ready to read your others. An autograph of yours would be a sweet bonus.
I love all of your books. I just wasn’t smart enough to discover your series until after I graduated from UCSC. I would have tried really hard to meet you. I read a lot, but Mary Russell is my favorite fictional detective of all time. Thank you for all of the lovely, fascinating writing.
I really don’t deserve to win as I owe you a thank you card for the prize I won at last years twitter garden party (when is the next one?) so I am taking this opportunity to say THANK YOU. My only excuse is that in the past year I have lost my job and found another one and tomorrow am closing on my new house in another state. I am a librarian, but my husband calls weeding book genocide so we have more books than will fit on our numerous bookcases, but I can always make room for a Laurie R. King book.
would love to win! I’ve read all of your books, and am impatient for Bones of Paris! 😀
I love and have read all of the Beekeeper’s Apprentice “Sherlock” books by Laurie King. I would love to start reading the Stuyvesant & Grey adventures.
I have a copy of Touchstone, and I loved it. As one of your unpaid PR people, I would happily pass my copy on to one of my friends or former students if I won one from you. I am looking forward to seeing you at the Thurber House in Columbus the week before my birthday…happy birthday to me!!!
Whoop! Chance to win free book, heck ya! Laurie’s writing is always spot on. Her characters, plot development, etc. is something I aspire to! When I grow up, I want to be a writer like her! 😉
I’d love to have an autographed LRK book! And I really enjoyed this particular one. Thanks!
Love your work, let’s see how this goes!
You are one of only two authors whose books I preorder…have you in a mix of hardbacks and paperbacks, and on my Kindle!
I only found out about you and your wonderful books a few years ago but have had a delightful time ‘catching up’! I simply can’t wait to read more.
Win or lose, a new title to add to my “to read” list!
Would dearly love to win an autographed book of yours.
I am so excited for Bones of Paris to come out!!!!
I love Laurie King!!! Can’t wait for her next book to come out! I love Mary Russell and Sherlock!
Love your work, Ms. King! My vote for film actors would be Cate Blanchett as Mary Russell, Alan Rickman as Sherlock. I cannot decide about Harris Stuyvesant – maybe Benedict Cumberbatch.
Thanks for the giveaway opportunity.
I first came across your work, when I borrowed a cassette recording of one of your books, ‘The Beekeeper’s Apprentice’, and enjoyed the life of Sherlock after Baker street, that I now have several of your books.
Thank you for keeping a timeless character alive. I have recommended your books to so many people looking for a new read that doesn’t have a muscled male on the cover. Winning a book would be icing on the cake!
Think you might well be called THE Author if Sherlock were required to name you. I certainly laud your plots, characters, ambience & general brilliance to all & sundry. You’ve a gift and a well honed skill & I thank you for sharing with us all.
Thank you for keeping a timeless character alive with interesting people and adventures.
Winning a book would be nice!
I’ve loved your books for years and years—as a matter of fact, I reread The Beekeeper’s Apprentice every few years because it is one of my favorite books of all time. Thanks so much for the opportunity to win one of your books!
Hi Sheila K–yes, I’ll be in Portland on October 3!
Hello, please come back to Powells and visit us in Oregon again. My wife and I saw you at the Tattered Cover when we lived in Denver and at Powells now that we’re in the Pacific Northwest. You are missed.
My dad and I both love your books and I would love to win a copy…..Very much looking forward to Bones of Paris!
Who wouldn’t like a copy? Here’s to luck for someone! (I hope it’s me.)
Love your work! Come back to Powells in Portland – we love you up here.
In a Dream
My arm extends to the shelf and stops
I grab but my hand stops short of a book
i gab and grab and grab my hand numb and unresponsive
A fog comes over me and I awake
I love laurie king. especially the mary russel, Sherlock holmes books.
I’d love to win a copy as well!
Great idea!
Ooh, I loved Touchstone – thanks for the opportunity to win this. 🙂
I love your work and have been reading it for years.
I would be thrilled to win a copy!
I love reading so a free book, especially a LRK, would be smashing!
Any chance of a midwestern tour someday?
I’ll keep it short as you will have many entries today. I’m merely a big fan of you! The Mary Russell series has given me so many happy hours reading and even re-reading your books. Why Sherlock Holmes captivated me as a boy and while he (and now Mary) still keeps my interest at a very high level at 62, is really no mystery. Intelligence, a strong moral code, a true knight. Conan Doyle was a master story teller, and you have the same talent to transform the written word into a painted picture in my mind.
And to increase my interest, I’ve added Mary to the legend for the last 15 plus years. Showing her growth as a person as well as her craft is simply amazing. Thank you for so many pleasurable hours. I will confess that I haven’t read your other books, but “Bones of Paris” interests me tremendously and its on my pre-bought list at Amazon. Thank you again Laurie!

Hope the England visit is going well. Can’t wait for the new Russell & Holmes. Really enjoyed reading Touchstone, and looking forward to reading The Bones of Paris. 🙂
Whenever I’m having a bad day, I go back to “The Beekeeper’s Apprentice” and read a chapter or two. My spirits are always lifted! Thank you for your writing, it has helped me buck up through many a tough time!
I wish you could come to northwest NJ! We would LOVE to see you at Sparta Books or Ledgewood Barnes & Noble (our closest bookstores)!
I had finished reading The Pirate King last month – looking forward to reading Garment of Shadows and TheBones of Paris next! 🙂
I just finished re-reading the Russell/Holmes novels and would love to start a new book. Keep writing!
Can’t wait for the new book!
Touchstone is one of my favorite Laurie King books. I loved the characters and hardly dared hope that they might reappear in a later work. I’m so excited for Bones of Paris to see what Harry has been up to!
I love your books, and wish you would do a Canadian tour. Please…….
I just finished Touchstone and can’t wait to read the next. And yes, a Midwestern tour would be amazing!
A modern haiku:
The mists of time around them
Holmes and Russel
read The Bones of Paris
😉
I hope we will see you in Paris for the publication!
Love Love Love all books written by Laurie R. King! I would like to win a copy. Come visit Orange County, CA. The weather is nice. 🙂
Thanks for the chance to win. I love all your books!
I just recommended the first of the Mary Russell series to a poet friend who was asking for novel suggestions. 🙂
So excited about the new book!
I can’t wait to read The Bones of Paris!
I am a HUGE fan of ALL your works. I think it is exciting how you can write totally different characters and themes. Such talent! I’m always excited by a new work of yours. This time included!
I would love to win a copy! I anticipate your new novels with glee. Thank you!
I must admit I haven’t ventured away from the Mary Russell books, but I would if I won one!!!
Come back to Seattle soon! We love Sherlock and Mary..
Come back to Seattle!
I await every single one of your books with bated breath and an open checkbook.
Be careful — your books are addicting (especially the Mary Russell/Sherlock Homes ones); indeed, they are so addicting they may be illegal!!!
Always excited to see a new title from you! I’m in Vancouver where your books are in high demand at the library — I was the one waitlisted on the 25 copies of “Garment of Shadows”. Finally got it and was most pleased. 🙂
I want a bookshelf that spans an entire wall. Currently stuck with a series of the waist-high ones from Le Target. I tried stacking them, but they didn’t take kindly to that, and one attacked me. That said, I’m sure I have a square foot of surface area somewhere that could accommodate another book!
Waiting with bated breath for the next in the Kate Martinelli series. Absolutely adored “The Art Of Detection”. I’ve read it twice (well, actually, because of failing eyesight, I’ve listened to the recorded version twice) and am working my way through the others slowly so as not to run out of material too fast.
You have been one of my favorite authors since the first time I read The Beekeeper’s Apprentice. When I ran out of that series, I was thrilled to discover your other novels. I can’t get enough! Unfortunately, I think my husband is going to make me wait until our anniversary in October before I can read this one. I’d sneak and read it before hand from the library when they get a copy, but I’m sure the waiting list will be forever long.
If you make it to Seattle and Portland, a detour to Aunties Bookstore in Spokane, WA would be very gratefully received! My mom and I have been reading your books together since I was little–First at bedtime, and now we read independently and compare thoughts.
Oh I do love the title of the new tale. It seems as if Miss Russell has insinuated herself into my life permanently, now: I think of her whenever I hear references to certain Middle Eastern locales, or to Oxford, or any number of other things. But never fear, it is an insinuation I accept gladly. Many small, secret smiles on my part.
So glad you’re getting us back in touch with Stuyvesant & Grey! (;>)
Loved hearing from you at the Mass Lib Assoc conference a while back–why not swing back over to the East Coast?
I’m still hoping that Mary Russell is a real person. Please tell me she is.
Can’t wait!
Thank you kindly for this opportunity and all your hard work. Your Russell and Martinez linked books are treasured, loaned and oft quoted.
Love your work Ms. King!
I am new to your work, but totally in love with your writing. I’m on the second book of the Mary Russell series and it is getting me through a terrible summer! Can’t wait to read more from you 🙂
My brother is your biggest fan. I hope I can get a copy for him.
Laurie – you have such a huge gift for writing wonderful stories and characters. I hope you have many many years ahead to write……and I have many many years ahead to read them all. Thank you !
I must admit to already having a copy of this book, having read it twice, but I would love to have a signed first edition. Love.
I wait with great anticipation for any book by Ms King!
Signed hardbound Touchstone! What a treat! Stuyvesant and Grey are among my all-time favorite characters.
Looking forward to seeing you in Portland this fall. Thanks for including us in your tours!
I agree–come back to Portland 🙂
I am so excited for you! Happy Release Frenzy!!! Does the Poison Pen Press carry it?
Love your work.
I love your books!!
Reading Touchstone now so I’ll be ready for Bones of Paris.
How exciting! I’d love to win.
Can’t wait for Bones of Paris!!!! So excited!!
Oh, oh…pick me!
did someone say come back to Portland? I will definitely second that. 🙂
Ooo. I’d make shelf space for this.
And the anticipation grows! So looking forward to your new book!
I will always be happy for a new Laurie title to add.
I would be so thrilled! Can’t stop reading your books, and I don’t have this one!
Oh, I’d love to win this book.
And long live to Mary Russel and Sherlock Holmes!
Just finished all the Kate Martinelli books! Wonderful!
Just shared The Beekeeper’s Apprentice with another friend! Can’t wait for the new book!
love your books!
Give away the first WHAT?
I’d love to take any book you would offer.
Loved the first book, Touchstone, and can’t wait for my pre-ordered copy of Bones of Paris!
Can’t wait for publication!
Loved “Touchstone,” and I’m very much looking forward to “Bones.” One of my favorite time periods and places, the American expatriate community in Paris. I came to it originally from the classical music side (Copland, Thomson, Nadia Boulanger), and that’s grown into an obsession with the literary, poetic & artistic scenes. Now you’re going to take me underground! How cool is that?
My first visit to your Web site–and I find you are having a giveaway–cool!
thanks for your imagination and strength with words. you have made many sleepless nights bearable.
I’m a fan of all the series. Can’t wait for the new ones.
Woot!!! How could I think about missing out on this? Obviously, I couldn’t!!
Haven’t read this one yet, would love to win it!
Would love to win! Thanks for the offer. Massive love to you dear one.
Oooh, I’m so excited for a new book!
Looking forward to Bones of Paris with bated breath. Your characters are so full of life. My family have become quite used to me speaking if Mary Russell as if she is a close friend. My youngest daughter has become a avid reader also and the books I bought for her are being consumed as quickly as we’re mine.
How exciting! Would love to add to my collection of your books!
How exciting! I’d love to add to my collection of your books!
Enter me, by all means!
Counting the days till it is published
You are only the third author I’ve read so thoroughly. Counting down the days till the release!
Excited!!! Love your books!
Tossing my hat into the ring! Thanks for the opportunity.
I absolutely loved Touchstone. Parts of it made me think of Brides revisited! Looking forward to reading The Bones of Paris.
Touchstone has been one of my favorites. Looking forward to Paris in the fall!
Hope to see you at Vroman’s in Pasadena on your next Grande Tour.
Touchstone? TOUCHSTONE?!? You mean there’s a Laurie King I haven’t read? I can’t believe this oversight! Hope you’re having a fab time in the homeland of Russell and Holmes. Excuse me while I head to the nearest bookstore!
I so enjoy all your books, and would love the chance to win one.
Love reading your mysteries.
yay for free books! 🙂
I’d be happy to read even a broken spined, half done preview copy or an unedited pdf file…. I just can’t wait and am so excited for the next book! Each one of your books are like little presents I give to myself when I read them. Most mysteries and fiction I inhale too quickly, but Russell and Holmes I savor, and try to make them last as much as possible, even a week if I can. Thankfully, your adept prose is worth being carefully read rather than skimmed, so even a second reading is a treat. Thanks for entering me in the drawing, and hope you know how much we love the books!
I love that your last few book releases have managed to coincide with my birthday. It makes coming up with gift suggestions so simple!
I own every one of your books….I love the Mary Russell series…except for the Pirate book…that left me cold. JUSTICE HALL and O JERUSALEM are my favorites. I picked up TOUCHSTONE but haven’t read it yet. Would love to have an autographed copy.
*fingers crossed*
Did someone say Laurie R. King and free in the same sentence??? I’m in.
Gorgeous books! Looking forward to your latest!
Having lived in Paris for five years, I can’t wait to revisit it vicariously – even though I know many things were very different in the 20s.
I’m re-reading “The Moor’, and can’t wait for “The Bones of Paris”. I’ve misplaced “The Bee Keeper’s Apprentice”, so I NEED a new LRK!
As usual, I appreciate you bringing out the new book in time for my birthday. It always solves my sister’s problem on what to give me in such a happy way for both of us!
I am very excited about a new book. I love your work Laurie. Your book “The Beekeeper’s Apprentice” launched me into the world of reading in grade 7 as I had never experience it before. It changed me into a life long reader overnight. I went from being blase about reading to loving it because of you. Thank you.
<3 Corrie
love your books. I have all the Russell/Holmes series. I have listened to them on audio so many times I could recite the dialogue. Iam looking forward to “Bones of Paris”.
Love your books! So excited for the new release!!!
I especially love the Russell/Holmes books!
Delighted to finally be able to share my appreciation for hours and hours of wonderful adventures with Russell and Holmes. Thank you!!
Looking forward to the new book.
Just finished the Anne Waverly novel–don’t know how I missed it, but I did! I was impressed with complexity and realism of the main character. You should do her again!
Thanks for the chance to win! I love your books.
Always in need of a good read!
Love your books! Thanks for opportunity!
Love the Laurie King books, and ADORE the approved scone recipe!! Made them for Christmas brunch.
Please come back to Seattle!
Looking forward to seeing you at Bookshop SC!
Love your books and hope I win!
How about a book signing in Port Alsworth, AK?! A little off the beaten path, but there’s a Laurie King fan here!
Why on earth did I write Brides revisited, when I meant Brideshead revisited by Evelyn Waugh? Sorry about that!
Hope we will see you soon in Paris !
Anxiously awaiting “The Bones of Paris”! Would love a book signing in the New England area.
As always, looking forward to the new book, and then to introducing a few more people to the worlds created by Laurie R King 🙂
At this point, Mary Russell feels like a dear friend. But perhaps she wouldn’t mind if I branched out and read Touchstone? Can’t wait to try it and Bones of Paris (best book title ever!), too.
I’m very excited to meet a new character. Plus, Paris has long been my favourite city, even though I don’t live there.
I can’t wait until Bones of Paris comes to New Zealand.
Having just discovered your book in the past few months, I am now happily reading all I can find. Have read all the Kate M. series and am moving on to Mary Russell. Would love to win a new book. It’s been a good summer for reading.
Always excited when a new book by you comes out! I just downsized (800 books went to the Friends of the Library in Tuscaloosa, AL), but if I should be fortunate to win the autographed book, I’ll be honored to give it prime space on my slimmed-down bookshelves!
Well, I thought I’d read all of Ms. King’s books, but somehow I missed Touchstone. Yikes quelle domage or maybe just MERDE! I will get me to the library posthaste! If I don’t win this stunning copy I’ll buy it to add to my LRK collection. BTW, I am trying to figure out Pinterest so I can be part of that fun too.
What a wonderful gift to your readers! Thank you, Laurie, for this fun opportunity!
I discovered The Beekeeper’s Apprentice in a box of books when I was a kid and have been hooked since. Although I’ve primarily been reading the Mary Russell series, I’ve since crossed over to the Kate Martinelli series with The Art of Detection and found that series just as enjoyable. Clearly you are a grave talent. OK, that was cheesy. But thanks for writing entertaining books.
To have a signed copy of a book from a favourite author, is very special. Hope I’m lucky.
I am certain that I am fairly obsessed with Laurie King’s work! I am going to be using birthday money, student loan money, dropped change from the sidewalk… to purchase full sets. Would love to win to add to collection!!!
A shiny new signed edition would be an outstanding addition to my otherwise well-thumbed and dog-eared collection of your works. 🙂
I always buy multiple copies of your new books, first editions, hardback of course, to keep for my children’s future wealth!
I am a Sherlockian who appreciates how happy Russell makes dear Sherlock. I have read and enjoyed all of your series, though.
I was one of the original Letters of Mary group.
How times flies…..
Would love to win this. My wife is a huge fan and she’s got me hooked on the Russell series (I’m only through book 2, but I’ll catch up soon)
