Diamond Shadow event

On Wednesday, August 20, at 2pm, I'll be in my local Dymocks store in Armidale, NSW, to give a talk about how I wrote The Case of the Diamond Shadow, plus give readers a bit of a sneak preview of one of the clues in the second Daisy and George book I am planning--which at the moment I'm calling The Case of the Black House. More on that soon!
If you are in Armidale on that day, do call into Dymocks--the talk is open to all!

Some more good reviews!

Here's extracts from another couple of good reviews for The Case of the Diamond Shadow..
The first one is from The Reading Stack, http://www.thereadingstack.com/

'The Case of the Diamond Shadow is a wonderfully entertaining detective story with one of the best endings I have read for a long time. Not only is it exciting but the twists and turns will keep young readers guessing all the way!'

The second one is from the YARA site, on which young readers review books: (http://goldcreek.act.edu.au/yara) The review is by 12 year old Ronja, from Canberra:
'I found this book amazing! I couldn't stop reading it until I had finished it end from end! I would recommend it to detective lovers and those who enjoy reading mysteries.'

Hurrah!
