It's a mystery...

The one thing better than having my first two forensic handwriting mystery novels released last year is having the third one come out on August 4! In DEAD WRITE, handwriting expert Claudia Rose goes to the Big Apple...

Dating can be dangerous, so clients who can afford the services of eccentric Russian "baroness", Grusha Olinetsky, are willing to pay the hundred thousand dollar fee she charges for an introduction to their perfect mate.

Drawn into the feckless lives of the rich and single, Claudia delves into a twisted world of love and lies fueled by desperation. But desperate enough to kill? Clues in the suspects' handwriting might help Claudia save Grusha's already dubious reputation before the names of more victims are scribbled into someone's little black book.

As the sponsor of the August VCPWN meeting, I'll have some copies of Dead Write with me. My book signing schedule is posted at www.claudiaroseseries.com.
