Killer Weekend UPDATE

The copyedit to Killer Weekend has arrived. And today I had my phone interview, a follow-up, with Sheriff Walt Femling, upon whom the book's central character, Sheriff Walt Flemming, is based.
Thankfully all the procedural work passed muster. I haven't dared to look at the copyedit (received last night), but it has to be in the mail by Tuesday, so I'm going to get on it. My publisher gave me five days to complete it -- 3 of which are a holiday weekend -- welcome to publishing!

If it will get us the book sooner, work hard and barbecue later!

Pam: It will, and so I will...

Ink: spring or summer 07. They haven't told me. Originally it was Feb -- so I'm disappointed too.

I'm going to be here for a while, aren't I?

Ridley, have you ever considered releasing for the southern hemisphere summer? That's only about 3 months away.....

I am going through everything 'Ridley' that's out there while I wait for the next Boldt... The first of your books I read was The Art of Deception earlier this year, and since then I've become an ADDICT! Any suggestions for my next stand-along? Among those I've already read Cut & Run, Parallel Lies and Chain of Evidence (which is just rocking!).
