Dear Friends and Bookworms,

For those of you who are not on my mailing list, here is an exciting announcement. By the way, getting on my mailing list and being informed about new books and important events in my writing career is easy. I promise, I won’t fill up your inbox.

Greetings and Salutations!
It’s been a while, but here I am once again, your slow but loyal wordsmith. The ebook version of my new novel, Finding Angelo, the sequel to The Italian Sister, is now ready for pre-order on Amazon for a very modest price of $1.99. The price will increase after the official launch on June 21, 2016. So reserve your copy while the  discount lasts!

Here is the link: Finding Angelo

For those of you who still like to hold a “real” book in their hands and inhale the scent of paper and ink (I do!), there will also be a printed paperback version.

Both The Italian Sister and Finding Angelo are stand-alone novels, but I recommend you read them in sequence. In case you haven’t read the first part yet, the ebook version of The Italian Sister is available on Amazon for 99 cents (instead of the regular price of $3.99) for about a week. So grab it while you can. If you like the book, I would of course appreciate a brief honest review on Amazon. This does not have to be a professional literary review, just a few sentences why you liked (or disliked–I hope not!) the book. The number of reviews, particularly positive ones, draws attention to the book and makes it visible for other readers.
And now without further ado, here is the blurb of Finding Angelo:
A hidden diary and a crumpled envelope, postmarked in Italy, are the only clues Martin Segantino has to what happened to his younger brother Angelo, the black sheep of the family, who disappeared under mysterious circumstances twenty years ago. When the police find the skeleton of Angelo’s close friend buried in one of the fields on the Segantino vineyards, the hunt for Angelo begins. Is he the killer or is he himself a victim? Sofia Segantino, great-niece of Angelo by marriage, embarks on her own search for the missing man. On her trip through the Piedmont region of Italy, she uncovers clues of Angelo’s whereabouts, which puts her in grave danger. The local gangsters are equally interested in the elusive Angelo and are ready to do whatever it takes to find him. Will Sofia be able to outsmart them?
Part family drama, part suspense, Finding Angelo takes the reader on a thrilling journey from California via Chicago and New York to Italy.
I hope this triggers your interest!
Your devoted Scrivener,
Christa
