Watcher in the Pine cover         The Summer Snow                  
July 2, 2006
Dear Readers,

Good news!  I have now dipped a toe into the world of blogging, with an Amazon "plog" about the four Tejada books.  I suspect this page will remain pretty stable for a while, but I'll try to post things on the blog regularly, so feel free to check in and write comments there.

Meanwhile, The Summer Snow, the fourth and (for a while) final Tejada mystery is appeared successfully in February 2006, and got some nice reviews in places like the New York Times, and Publisher's Weekly.  The Dutch, Italian and Portuguese translations of Death of a Nationalist have all appeared recently.  I've put up the pictures of the covers (along with links to places to purchase them) on my new translations page.

I am once more heading off to the Semana Negra de Gijón and should be there between July 10th and 17th.  I'll be briefly in Spain before and after, saying hello to old friends, and exploring new places.  Then I'm back in New York for the rest of the summer, working on a new novel (not one of the Tejada series, but rather a historical novel about Renaissance Flanders).  I'll try to post a few updates about that novel either here or in the blog.

I'd also like to take the opportunity to thank all the readers who have emailed me and shared their stories about Spain, and their memories of Spain under dictatorship.  I really appreciate hearing from so many people of good will.  It's one of the great things about the internet.  Please forgive the long silence.

Salud camaradas.  Happy reading.
