Hi, Bird Lovers!
This is J.R. Ripley, author of the Bird Lover’s mystery series, and I’m delighted to announce an awesome promotion for my upcoming book, How the Finch Stole Christmas, which is coming out November 14, 2017 – just in time for holiday gift giving! I don’t know about you but, if you ask me, there’s no greater gift you can give yourself than, well, a gift! In this case, a new cozy mystery novel PLUS some nifty bonuses!
In How the Finch Stole Christmas, the sixth “Bird Lover’s Mystery” book, we return to the Birds & Bees birding shop and owner Amy Simms. It’s the holiday season and, before Amy can get into the festive spirit, she meets Franklin Finch—the cocky new owner of Christmas House Village. Locals have been squawking over his decision to sack veteran staff members for cheaper help. And when Finch blows off a business deal with Amy, it confirms that he’s the biggest scrooge around. Still, she’s stunned the night his dead body is found swinging in the attic of a festive Victorian. Clashing against Chief Kennedy once again, Amy sets off to prove that Finch was murdered and find his seedy killer.
To show my appreciation to my loyal readers, I am offering some excellent bonuses to everyone who pre-orders How the Finch Stole Christmas. What bonuses? How about an “outtake” from How the Finch Stole Christmas? Yeah, you like that? Great, you’ll get it! All you have to do is preorder your copy for exclusive access to the bonus content with your purchase.
That’s not all – I’ve also recorded a special Bird Lover’s mystery song with the full band! This song not only features me, it includes Bill Thompson, III. If you are a bird watcher, you probably know already that Bill is the editor of Bird Watcher’s Digest magazine. He’s a keen birder and the author of many books on birding. He’s also one mean guitar player! An mp3 of this song will also be included for free with your purchase and behind-the-scene footage from the recording will also be made available.
These bonuses are exclusive to those of you who preorder How the Finch Stole Christmas!
Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy reading the Bird Lover’s mysteries as much as I enjoy writing them!
Warm Wishes,
J.R. Ripley
