"Cathy, THROUGH THE EVIL DAYS should be out April 2013. (Sorry for the long wait!) And as to the rest... well, I guess we'll have to see what happens to Russ and Clare."

"Wow . . . I did not see that coming.  Way back when we read "The Beginning, Part 4," there was this: "she heard a whumping noise . . . . Then there was another whump, and another.  In the black, moon-blank windows, she…"

Work-in-Progress Wednesday: Chapter 5, Part 2

            “He hasn't been trained to find corpses. He'll ignore humans, unless they've got accelerant on them.” Lent pointed to the charred and listing timbers framing non-existent rooms. “Dakota. Seek.”     The dog trotted toward the ruins. He entered through the shell of the front door and veered to the left, picking his way over the wreckage, nosing in what looked to Kevin like a random…See More

Because I love this series so much, I would be willing to consider any recommendations Julia has. She has gotten me into the Inspector Armand Gamache series by Louise Penny. Any other recommendations, either from Julia or from my fellow bloggers?

When Will the Next Book be Out?

As you may know, I'm working on the next book in the series. Its working title is SEVEN WHOLE DAYS, but don't count on that to last because the booksellers I've spoken to all went, "Blaaah," when I tried out the title on them. The novel opens about two months after the end of ONE WAS A SOLDIER and, as you might guess from the title, takes place over a single week.

Right now, it looks as if publication will be at the end of 2012 or beginning of 2013. I'll let you know when I…
