I’m incredibly excited and honored to be one of the blogs selected to feature the cover release for Oracle, the upcoming debut novel by author J.C. Martin. Ms. Martin’s brief bio describes her as a butt-kicking bookworm and displaced Malaysian who writes crime and thrillers. I know her as a terrific Triberr mate and very supportive and talented fellow writer.
In keeping with the book’s rather mysterious title and theme, Ms. Martin has creatively styled her cover release to involve a mystery blog tour. Participants who solve the “mystery” will be entered for the chance to win a $20 Amazon gift voucher! For more information, please visit Ms. Martin’s Mystery Tour Headquarters.
And now, for the enticing blurb about the book before the big cover reveal:
“As the countdown begins, the body count rises.
With London gearing up to host the Olympics, the city doesn’t need a serial killer stalking the streets. They’ve got one anyway.
Leaving a trail of brutal and bizarre murders, the police are no closer to finding their latest murderer than Detective Inspector Kurt Lancer is in finding a solution for his daughter’s disability.
Thrust into the pressure cooker of a high profile case, the struggling single parent is wound tight as he tries to balance care of his own family with the safety of a growing population of potential next victims.
One of whom could be his own daughter.
Fingers point in every direction as the public relations nightmare grows, and Lancer’s only answer comes in the form of a single oak leaf left at each crime scene.”
Okay, here’s what you’ve been waiting for…the beautiful new cover of Oracle!
I, for one, am looking forward to checking out Oracle when it’s released by J Taylor Publishing on July 30th, and I hope you do, too! Don’t forget to seek out the other blogs participating in this mystery tour for your chance to win a $20 Amazon gift card. Good luck!
