It's Week 8 of #EscapeWithABook, and this week's a bit different because I have a FREEBIE for you! School's Out is a longish short story which I wrote as a bit of a warm-up for Pippa Parker book 6. It's a very gentle, cosy mystery which features a few of the characters you may have …

'Whoa, what's that?' I hear you cry. 'What's that picture with Book News over the top of it?' Only I'm sure you expressed it so much better than I just did. Just a couple of things to take us into the weekend. The first is that I have a Kindle Countdown Deal running on my Sherlock …
