In two weeks Death By Killer Mop Doll, the second book in the critically acclaimed mystery series about yours truly (hence the series name of the Anastasia Pollack Crafting Mysteries), will be released. So today I’ve invited Lois Winston, the author responsible for telling my stories, to talk about the new book. -- AP
Thank you, Anastasia. It’s a pleasure to be allowed to write about your adventures. Given your life and family, you make my job rather easy.
Hey, you can choose your friends, but you can’t choose your relatives…or even what you inherit from them.
Very true.
So I understand with this book you’ve chosen to write about my foray into morning television. Why don’t you give our readers a bit to whet their appetites for the book?

In Death By Killer Mop Doll crafts editor Anastasia Pollack’s stress level maxes out when her well-intentioned mother meets and seduces TV producer Lou Beaumont. Suddenly, Anastasia and her fellow American Woman editors find themselves roped into unpaid gigs for a revamped morning TV show. However, not everyone involved enjoys the idea of the overhaul, and a disgruntled staffer takes action by trashing the studio set. When that doesn’t halt production, vandalism escalates to murder, and a member of the production team is found with one of Anastasia’s knitting needles plunged through his heart.
The network decides the show must go on, but morning TV turns crime drama as a blackmail plot is uncovered, and another body is found. Because Anastasia fears the killer might go after her and Mama next, she has no recourse but to launch her own investigation. Unfortunately, her snooping lands her directly in the killer's unforgiving spotlight.
Don’t remind me! That was one harrowing experience, and unlike the time I found myself locked in a killer’s trunk, this time I didn’t have any of my trusty craft tools to help set me free.
Well, we don’t want to give away too much, but I suppose it’s safe to say that you did live to get involved in yet another murder investigation.
Yes, but readers will have to wait until next year for that one. Meanwhile, Death By Killer Mop Doll, will be available from all the usual suspects, both brick and mortar and online. For those of you who’d prefer the e-book version, that will be available next month.
Lois will also be going on a virtual blog tour throughout January to promote Death By Killer Mop Doll. As part of the tour, she’ll be giving away 5 copies of the book. To enter the drawing, just post a comment to any of the blogs on the tour or to today’s post. You can find the schedule for the blog tour on the sidebar to the right.
In addition, Lois will be giving away 3 copies of Death By Killer Mop Doll on Goodreads.
And since I’m sure many of you are wondering exactly what a mop doll is, be sure to stop by next Friday when Lois returns with a bit of mop doll lore. Meanwhile, read more about Lois and an excerpt from Death By Killer Mop Doll at her website. -- AP
