The leaves are turning, and so are the wee helicopter seeds that are falling from the trees (don’t ask me which trees – I’m a city girl) and it seems like a good time to talk about some of the things I like about autumn.
The Sarcophagus Scroll is included in the August bundle of Dark Thriller and Thrillers at Book Sirens.
If you are looking for a new thriller to read, that means you can download a free e-copy of The Sarcophagus Scroll (if you haven’t already), or of any of the other books below! Click on the images to follow the links.
If you’re wondering why this is on my K C Murdarasi blog and not the Kat Miller one – it is over there too, but no one reads that one 😂

It’s been a while since I did any talks related to Hugh Macdonald, the Victorian Glasgow journalist whose book I annotated in 2022.
