Summer Is Here and There's Music in the Air ...
and that's the problem for David Salomon,
the protagonist of the newest book in the
Ezra Melamed Mystery Series:
The Doppelganger's Dance
An Ezra Melamed Mystery
Jane Austen meets Sherlock Holmes when a crime wave sweeps through Regency London's Jewish community and the adventures of wealthy-widower-turned-sleuth Ezra Melamed are recorded for posterity by Miss Rebecca Lyon, a young lady not quite at the marriageable age.
In this fourth volume of the series, David Salomon, a young violinist and composer, has left New York to find fame and fortune in Regency London. But disaster strikes not long after he arrives. Someone is stealing and publishing his compositions before he can perform them and soon he is the laughingstock of the beau monde that he had hoped to conquer. With few friends and even fewer resources, he turns to Ezra Melamed for help with finding the thief.
But who would wish to harm a young stranger? The deeper Mr. Melamed looks into the violinist’s story the more jarring notes he finds, making The Doppelganger’s Dance one of the most discomposing mysteries of his career.

Traditional Publishing, Subsidy Publishing, Self-Publishing - How Do You Know Which Publishing Path Is Best For You?
A few years ago, everyone said your book had to be published by a traditional publisher, if you wanted it to be taken seriously. Today, it seems like everyone is saying that self-publishing is the only way to go. But you're not "everyone," and your book wasn't written by "everyone." So, how do you know what to do? In this brief guidebook, we'll take a look at the pros and cons of the various options, examine each step in the publishing process and consider sample budgets. By the end you should have enough knowledge about the publishing industry - as well as your own preferences - to make an informed decision as to whether or not self-publishing is for you. Available as both an ebook and trade paperback at Amazon. Watch out for the Kindle Countdown Deal on August 7-14, when the ebook will be just 99 cents! |
