Thank you for stopping by I'm delighted to be sharing a brilliant cover reveal with you all today but that's not all there is also the chance to receive a free short story, read on for more details.
First of all though let's take a look at the cover for Needle Song by Russell Day...
So what do you think?
Now you have seen the cover you can read on for the description of the book and also check out how to receive a free short story by Russell Day...
Spending the night with a
beautiful woman would be a good alibi, if the body in the next room wasn't her
husband.
Doc Slidesmith has a habit
of knowing things he shouldn’t. He knows the woman Chris Rudjer meets online is
married. He knows the adult fun she’s looking for is likely to be short lived.
And when her husband’s killed, he knows Chris Rudjer didn’t do it.
Only trouble is the police
disagree and no one wants to waste time investigating an open and shut case.
No one except Doc.
Using lies, blackmail and
a loaded pack of Tarot cards, Doc sets about looking for the truth - but the
more truth he finds, the less he thinks his friend is going to like it.

Russell Day was born in 1966 and grew
up in Harlesden, NW10 – a geographic region searching for an alibi. From an
early age it was clear the only things he cared about were motorcycles, tattoos
and writing. At a later stage he added family life to his list of interests and
now lives with his wife and two children. He’s still in London, but has moved
south of the river for the milder climate.
Although he only writes crime fiction
Russ doesn’t consider his work restricted. ‘As long as there have been people
there has been crime, as long as there are people there will be
crime.’ That attitude leaves a lot of scope for settings and characters. One of
the first short stories he had published, The Second Rat and the
Automatic Nun, was a double-cross story set in a world where the church had
taken over policing. In his first novel, Needle Song, an amateur
detective employs logic, psychology and a loaded pack of tarot cards to
investigate a death.
Russ often tells people he seldom
smiles due to nerve damage, sustained when his jaw was broken. In fact, this is
a total fabrication and his family will tell you he’s has always been a
miserable bastard.
Thank you so much, Rachel. Your post is fabulous, I love it!
