I’m excited to welcome the Book Tour for the first installment in The Stonebridge Mysteries, The Curious Dispatch of Daniel Costello by Chris McDonald this morning. I was supposed to be part of a Cover Reveal for this last month, but the material fell prey to a spam filter. Thankfully, all this material got through just fine, so I only owe Red Dog Press one apology. Check back next hour for my take on the novella, but for now, let’s start by learning a little about this book, okay?
Book Details:
Book Title: The Curious Dispatch of Daniel Costello by Chris McDonald
Series: The Stonebridge Mysteries
Publisher: Red Dog Press
Release date: January 12, 2021
Format: Paperback/Ebook
Length: 94 pages
Book Blurb:
Wedding bells are chiming in the idyllic, coastal town of Stonebridge. For Sam and Emily, it should be the happiest day of their lives. But on the morning of the ceremony, the best man is found dead. The police quickly write his death off as a tragic accident, but something doesn’t seem right to wedding guest and groomsman, Adam Whyte.
Armed with an encyclopedic, but ultimately ridiculous knowledge of television detective shows and an unwarranted confidence in his own abilities, Adam and his best friend (and willing Watson) Colin, set out to uncover what actually happened to Daniel Costello.
About Chris McDonald:
Originally hailing from the north coast of Northern Ireland and now residing in South Manchester, Chris McDonald has always been a reader. At primary school, The Hardy Boys inspired his love of adventure before his reading world was opened up by Chuck Palahniuk and the gritty world of crime. A Wash of Black is his first attempt at writing a book. He came up with the initial idea whilst feeding his baby in the middle of the night, which may not be the best thing to admit, considering the content. He is a fan of 5-a-side football, heavy metal and dogs. Whispers in the Dark is the second installment in the DI Erika Piper series, and Chris is currently working on his latest series, The Stonebridge Mysteries, to be published by Red Dog Press in 2021.
