Dear Reader,
I am really excited to say that Dandy and the Dognappers is now up for pre-order on all the major retailers, with the publication date of August 25, 2023. This newsletter is so late in the month because I didn’t want to send it out until I got the pre-order up. But you also have a number of audiobook discounts to check out, as well as a free science fiction/fantasy promotion and the next free historical mystery from the Round Robin I am participating in. I particularly enjoyed Sara Rossett’s Murder at Archly Manor, so do check that out.
M. Louisa Locke
It is the fall of 1882 and dogs are disappearing from the streets of San Francisco at an alarming rate. Could they be victims of an over-zealous pound keeper, or are they being stolen and then returned for a hefty ransom? Once more, the intrepid Boston Terrier Dandy and his young friends, are on the case. The events in this short story come immediately after the events in Mrs. Stein Solves a Crime: A Victorian San Francisco Novella.

Historical Mystery for the Month:
Grab your free ebook copy of this 1920s country house mystery, Murder at Archly Manor, from Sara Rosett.
Murder at Archly Manor
A high society murder. A spirited lady detective. Can she out-class the killer before an innocent person takes the fall?
London, 1923. Olive Belgrave needs a job. Despite her aristocratic upbringing, she’s penniless. Determined to support herself, she jumps at an unconventional job—looking into the background of her cousin’s fiancé, Alfred.
Alfred burst into the upper crust world of London’s high society, but his answers to questions about his past are decidedly vague. Before Olive can gather more than the basics, a murder occurs at a posh party. Suddenly, every Bright Young Person in attendance is a suspect, and Olive must race to find the culprit because a sly murderer is determined to make sure Olive’s first case is her last.
Murder at Archly Manor is the first in the High Society Lady Detective series of charming historical cozy mysteries. If you like witty banter, glamorous settings, and delightful plot twists, you’ll love USA Today bestselling author Sara Rosett’s series for Anglophiles and mystery lovers alike.
Travel back to the Golden Age of detective fiction with Murder at Archly Manor.
