I dropped by WritersBone.com to talk about my new fiendishly funny foody novel, The Murdery Delicious Blood Stone Secret! Click here to listen in to the podcast where we also discuss the perilous plunge into writing itself and my favorites list of novels I've read this year. Also go to PeterHalseySherwood.net and #murderydelicious for more info. Available on Amazon.com, BN.com, iTunes and Google Play. Thanks as always to the kindly folks at Writer's Bone!
Here's their fantastic review!
"Sherwood’s finale to the Murdery Delicious is much like the author himself: 'very witty and very smart.' We find Reynald and Willoughby Chalmers, 'a little older, perhaps wiser, and undoubtedly more terrified,' and trying to survive the perils of the Blood Stone Manor with their wives and children. The Murdery Delicious Blood Stone Secret is chock-full of Sherwood’s theatric dialogue and whimsical prose.
I always feel better about literature and writing whenever I finish a Sherwood yarn (not to mention hungrier!), and this novel was no exception. It’s been a real joy tracking Sherwood’s progress as a writer, and I can’t wait to see what he comes up with next. While I hope that this isn’t the last time we see with the Chalmers brothers, if it is, then it is more than a fitting (and ghostly!) conclusion to their adventures. Standing up applauding at the end...chilling."
The Chalmers
brothers have returned in the devastating finale of the Murdery Delicious
trilogy—a little older, perhaps wiser, and undoubtedly more terrified. As The
Murdery Delicious Blood Stone Secret unfolds, a breezy summer getaway at their newly
restored ancestral home quickly becomes a crawl through the gnarled branches of
the Chalmers’ family tree. Reality itself is questioned even as fear takes
root, center stage. Along the Chalmers’ journey, readers have followed them through
literary genres such as the penny dreadful and the classic whodunnit. Now, the
brothers, their wives and children find themselves subjected to perils only
found in a decidedly ghastly ghost story. Who can uncover the buried secret of
Blood Stone Manor? What lurks behind the drapes? The only certainty is that
some houses are never meant to be left behind as much as some inhabitants pray
to leave them. Do peer past the gate, won’t you?
