The Case of Over My Dead Body!...plus A PURSE TO DIE FOR Pre-ordering on Kobo and Nook at 99¢ US!

You know, a character like me doesn't have a whole heck of a lot of say in what her author decides to write about her. Take HIDE AND SEEK FOR GROWN-UPS for example. Cynthia St-Pierre didn't go all 50 shades in the short mystery story she wrote about me for Over My Dead Body! mystery magazine online, but I have to admit the 1 shade she did go makes me blush.
 
What are my customers going to think? Keep in mind, Black Currant Bay citizens are a conservative bunch. And they're already wary of me: an outsider, a designer, a VEGETARIAN!

Click on the image above to read the story (it's totally free to the public...including all the police officers who serve under my husband) and let me know what you think.

The Case of Vegetarian Detective in Italy

B uon giorno!   I feel like a snob saying, "I'm just back from Italy." That's me: jetsetter. Yeah, right!   But wow...Italy!   I could talk up a storm, and I surely will as I adjust to being back here, six time zones from magnificent Italia . I often ask people who've just travelled what was their favourite part of their trip. If I ask the same of myself, my answer is seeing Michelangelo's sculptures. His Pietà and The Statue of David literally moved me to tears. I just can't believe I saw "him" in person!   So...our plane from Toronto was delayed six hours and we missed the first day of activities, but we still visited Rome, Montecatini, Siena, San Gimignano, Pisa, Vinci, Florence, Cinque Terre and Assisi. Quite the agenda for ten days, including the two flight days, wouldn't you say? But Trafalgar made it work. I would go on a Trafalgar trip again in a heartbeat.   Things I learned in Italy:   In the regions we ...

You're also invited to get to know me (Cynthia's favourite character) better by reading the mystery novels I'm in: A Purse to Die For and A Killer Necklace . Yours, Becki Green (Vegetarian Detective)
