San Stef thriller
« on: March 27, 2022, 09:05:05 PM »
I'm very pleased to say that my new novel "Almond - and the deep blue sea" will be published this week. It's a tongue-in-cheek thriller set in Agios Stefanos, featuring private investigator Johnny Almond, who was a detective in London until he made a career-ending mistake.

It'll be available in Kindle and paperback.

It's a nervous moment for me, as you can imagine! I do hope you will enjoy it. You'll certainly know what the locations and the food look like!

And we have lift-off!

https://www.amazon.co.uk/ALMOND-deep-blue-Jim-Hawkins/dp/B09VJTKR4V/ref=monarch_sidesheet

If you enjoy it, I'll be grateful for a few stars and a review on Amazon. It makes a big difference because Amazon's automatic system takes note of ratings and includes popular books in emails etc.

I've enrolled the book in the Kindle Unlimited system, and if you are a member you can read it for nothing! I wish I could make the paperback cheaper but, alas, I can't because Amazon imposes a minimum sales price. I can assure you I am not making enough per book to buy a bottle of Mythos!
